Bug#888493: xserver-xorg-input-libinput: Thinkpad T560 trackpoint completely unusable



Source: xserver-xorg-input-libinput
Version: 0.26.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Switching from stable to testing, libinput became the default.

Unfortunately the trackpoint is basically unusable. It is incredibly
sensitive, but this value seems to change at random, so applying a constant
pressure on the device results in the cursor jumping around at various speeds.

For now my solution was to remove the package and keep using the normal
xorg input method.

It seems that the library is completely untested on trackpoints.

Best
