I can clearly see these events in xev.
Result is that I don't really experience scrolling, rather jumping up and
down
with a random-like distance.
With trackpoint I mean that red button in the middle of a Lenovo laptop.
(Mouse wheel scrolling works perfect, in contrast.)
Have you tried the workaround given in [1] ?
According to the internet, the trackpoint driver tries to be too clever and
doesn't send WM_MOUSEWHEEL messages, but tries to fiddle with the Windows
scrollbars directly itself, which obviously isn't going to work well for an X
window :S

Hi Jon,
I can't find any of the files tp4*.dat on my PC (I'm running Windows 7) - see
console output below.
And I do get the trackpoint events, they are just delayed until I release that
button;
on release I get hundreds of correct events scrolling my window to somewhere.
How many events I get depends on how long or how intense I pressed the track
point (sounds reasonable to me).
Paul.
