Lenovo Trackpoint Not Working

/ Comments off

Is there any way to enable scrolling via Trackpoint? Lenovo laptops have middle button for that, which can you can hold and move Trackpoint, and I am missing similar feature on my ZBook 14u (G5). I want, however, some guidance on how to make it work only on the trackpoint, but not external mouse, as I need my middle button in CAD programs. I am using lenovo laptop which has trackpoint. Scrolling with trackpoint is not working with firefox 4. This could have negative effects of trackpoint users. Any solutions? I'm running Windows 7 64-bit with Service Pack 1 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X61 Tablet and TrackPoint Software 4.73.1 (which seems to be the latest one available). Opera Version 56.0.3051.116 is the last to support the TrackPoint Scrolling functionality. Unfortunately on the latest Opera 57 Stable and Opera 59 Developer TrackPoint Scrolling doesn't work anymore.

Usb mic vs interface. Looking to choose your first Garageband microphone? Find out whether a USB microphone or full Audio Interface set up is best for you. I almost bought a USB mic but then realized that i would need something a bit more. XLR Mics have to be connected to an Audio Interface which has to be. Article about two really affordable ones: Focusrite Scarlett VS Behringer U-Phoria. Jun 24, 2018 - The computer receives the sound. An audio interface is everything you just read except the microphone. The interface is the bridge between the source (guitar, microphones etc) and the PC. You can't plug a USB microphone into an Interface, because audio interfaces don't accept USB as an input. An audio interface is an important device to connect your microphone to your computer.

Maybe dumb, but are you sure you didn't deactivate it by Fn+F8?

According to bugreport adding

Section 'InputClass' Identifier 'touchpad catchall' Driver 'libinput' MatchIsTouchpad 'on' MatchDevicePath '/dev/input/event*'EndSection

into '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' could also help.
