Trackpoint + button does not work for wheel emulation

[PrinceWilliam]

With my Lenovo X240 laptop the Trackpad/Trackpoint scrolling does not work when pressing middle button + moving the Trackpoint. Middle button itself works fine for middle clicks just no scrolling.

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) reached end-of-standard-support on April 25, 2019.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when using a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
