Now I combined two scripts to automate the HID configuration for the x200:
#!/bin/bash xmodmap -e "remove lock = Caps_Lock" xmodmap -e "add shift = Caps_Lock" xinput set-int-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation" 8 1 xinput set-int-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation Button" 8 2 xinput set-int-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation Y Axis" 8 4 5 xinput set-int-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emugreatlation X Axis" 8 6 7
(partial source of this script: ThinkWiki)
It replaces Caps Lock with Shift and enables the TrackPoint’s middle mouse button.
Like this it’s definitely more efficient to type – and more comfortable to navigate.
