Public bug reported:
Up until version 11.04 of ubuntu I could simply add an option to my X
InputClass to emulate a third mouse button for my HP TrackPoint like this:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Trackpoint"
MatchIsPointer "on"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "True"
EndSection
This method stopped working since the upgrade to 11.10. I suppose it's related
to the x-server update. I also tried adding a udev rule like this:
ENV{x11_options.Emulate3Buttons}="True"
which is also ignored.
