Hi misc@,

I've been using 7.6, through the same drive, on three different Thinkpad
laptops. Pretty different results on all of them as far as the
trackpoint goes.

T400:

In sway: Touchpad works great, but the whole trackpoint does nothing, buttons 
and
all. I think that's because /dev/wsmouse1 is owned by root:wheel, and not
my user? /dev/wsmouse0 is owned by my user. I'm not sure what configures
/dev permissions. I do see that /dev is pre-populated and not dynamic.

R500:

In sway or on the console with wsmoused running: Trackpoint jumps around
erratically, like it does box jumps from one corner to another.
Unusable. Touchpad is good, though. Trackpoint buttons work, but after
using them the cursor jumps away. It's possible I was using root for
sway, but can't quite remember when I was doing this.

X: Trackpoint works fine. However, one of my favorite features is being
able to hold down the middle button and scroll with the trackpoint. It's
not doing this.

In FreeBSD with sway it worked as I expected it to, including with the
middle button and scroll, so I'm ruling out hardware.

X200s:

Sway: Trackpoint works great, but no middle mouse button scrolling. It
is a little slow, though. I didn't notice any wsconsctl tunables for
speed on it.

I'm rather new to OpenBSD, coming from a FreeBSD background. I may be
missing some obvious things here and would appreciate some guidance on
what to try. I also understand that Wayland is pretty new to OpenBSD and
I may be asking for some problems.

Many years ago I configured my X configuration by hand, then it
generally seemed to "figure it out" and I've been configuration-less for
a while. I'm not sure what the best practices currently are.

I appeciate any advice you can offer.

Thank you!
