Scrolling with trackpoint isn't working

Hi,

I use Salamander a lot on my Laptop.It is an IBM thinkpad. Everything works well so far except the scrolling in the left or right file panel with the thinkpad trackpoint .

I don't like the touchpad, it is less productive than the trackpoint

It would be great if I could know if this is an error.

Hi. Does the trackpoint work in other applications, e.g. Windows Explorer? Has it been always that way or did scrolling stop working at some point?

Hi,

Hi, Im using Lenovo R400 and TrackPoint and TouchPad works great.

OS: Windows Vista Bussiness

Some people have problems with scrolling pages in Opera browser. It could be fixed by downloading new drivers for UltraNav (TrackPoint+TouchPad).

Try http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... eLenovo.do and there is a link: "Automatically download and install drivers". I hope that this will work.

@ALTAP] I think it would be a good idea, if you programmed a small testing application that would display all WM messages received (I couldn't find any and I don't have the knowledge to create it myself). That could show us why the trackpoint isn't working properly.

HI,
I am using windows XP SP2.OK, I will have a look, if the new driver helps. That's a good idea.

Thanks

YES, the latest and greatest driver did it

I thought we already have it as standard.

Have nice night
