Public bug reported:
I'm using Ubuntu Gutsy, final release, with most updated packages available to
date of this report.
The hardware is a Lenovo IMB Thinkpad R61 (model code 8918-5WG), acquired
around mid october 2007.
The issue is that nor the touchpad neither the trackpoint devices are
recognized by ubuntu for what they are, and they work only in generic mouse
emulation.
Both do their basic job for moving the cursor around and clicking, including
tap to click on the touchpad (but not on the trackpoint).
However nothing specific about these devices can be configured at all,
and they can't be configured separately as they should. I don't even
have a "Touchpad" tab in my mouse preferences screen.
I will attach to this bug X.org log and hwinfo output related to this issue.
If there's any other hardware information anyone needs, please let me know and
i will gladly provide it.
Finally, the issue is very similar, if not the same, as the one in Bug
#129477
