$ xinput
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SYNA30B4:00 06CB:CE09 Mouse id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SYNA30B4:00 06CB:CE09 Touchpad id=12 [slave pointer (2)]

The touchpad is working fine, but the pointing stick/trackpoint does not work at all.
No input is registered with xinput and libinput device tests.
