I got a USB keyboard which equals the inbuilt one of the Lenovo Thinkpads [1].
The keyboard has a trackpoint and 3 dedicated keys to replace the mouse
buttons.
Opensuse 13.1 on my thinkpad setup the trackpoint to enable scrolling while the
middle (mouse) key button is hold out-of-the-box. How do I get the same with my
keyboard.
I can get it working with some xinput calls in the console:
xinput set-int-prop 10 "Evdev Wheel Emulation Button" 8 2 && xinput
set-int-prop 10 "Evdev Wheel Emulation" 8 1
But this can only be a work-around. I think there must be a way to make this
automatically by udev-rules or something like this.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
- plug in the keyboard (or it is already)
- try to scroll in firefox by holding the middle mouse button and moving the
trackpoint
Actual Results:
- instead of scrolling, the cursor moves
Expected Results:
scrolling
I don't need to call xinput on my Lenovo Thinkpad Laptop. I think it should be
the same of this keyboard.

looks like X issue as X autoconfigure hardware itself now. Reassigning
