Hi Pavio,

To enable scrolling via the middle-mouse-button in combination with the stick, add this to your xorg.conf:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "ThinkPad TrackPoint"
MatchProduct "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "YAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
