wheel emulation settings not persisted across suspend/resume

[Phil Sung]

Binary package hint: gpointing-device-settings

In gpointing-device-settings, I've configured the "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" device on a Thinkpad X61s with wheel emulation on button 2.

Wheel emulation disappears after resuming from suspend. If I log out and back in again, or reboot the computer, the settings are restored.

I have a X200t and wheel emulation works for me after suspend, but i had to add a rule to udev to get it working in the first place. /lib/udev/rules.d/99-trackpoint.rules

ACTION!="add|change", GOTO="xorg_trackpoint_end"
KERNEL!="event*", GOTO="xorg_trackpoint_end"

Hi,

same for me :(
Settings do not survive resume (on Dell Latitude E6400 with Ubuntu Lucid)
Reloading the psmouse kernel module (see http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_configure_the_TrackPoint) does not help.
