I ran into the same problem today; the trackpoint and the related keys for left, middle and right click between keyboard and touchpad were not working anymore after a cold boot on my Thinkpad X230 running Kernel 3.5.0-26-generic on Ubuntu 12.10-amd64.
This is the first time this error occurs, rebooting again fixed the problem. I will try the mainline kernel and see if this problem occurs again. In the meantime I hope this comment prevents this bug from expiring due to inactivity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1103025 Title: Trackpoint and trackpoint buttons do not work after boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1103025/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
