Setting EmulateWheel with hal (new X model in sid)

[Micha Feigin <michf@post.tau.ac.il>]

I'm trying to restore my X settings with the move to X 7.4 in sid which
requires moving keyboard and mouse settings to hal settings. I tried creating a
file under

/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty

that contains

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.mouse">
      <merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">on</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="integer">2</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelTimeOut" type="integer">300</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.XAxisMapping" type="integer">6 7</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.YAxisMapping" type="integer">4 5</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.Buttons" type="integer">7</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.HWHEELRelativeAxisButtons" type="integer">7 6</merge>
      <merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxisMapping" type="integer">4 5</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

But it doesn't seem to have any effect
any ideas on how to get this to work ? (this is for the trackpoint on the
thinkpads to allow it to scroll using the middle mouse button like under
windows)
