Bug 861813

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0

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.
