Bug Description
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Compact USB Keyboard with TrackPoint - this is an external USB keyboard with integrated TrackPoint that is based on the keyboard from the Thinkpad X230/T430/T530.
Lenovo part number is: 0B47190
Vertical scrolling works fine out of the box on Ubuntu 14.04 (fully updated), but horizontal scrolling does not work.
I have it connected to a Thinkpad X200, also with integrated Trackpoint, where horizontal works fine.
If I run xev, vertical scrolling up / down outputs button 4 / 5 as expected, but horizontal scroll has no output.
I have an open thread about it here:

Here is an Amazon reviewer on Archlinux (likely more knowledgeable than me) with the same issue:

On a Windows machine horizontal scroll worked fine using the same device.
