[Bug 508754] [NEW] Trackpoint settings for wheel emulation in gpointing-device-settings are non-persistent

[Untitled No. 4]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gpointing-device-settings

On a thinkpad, after installing and setting up the middle button of the trackpoint for wheel-emulation the settings are ignored after rebooting the computer and there is no wheel emulation. To re-enable the wheel emulation I have:
1. Disable wheel emulation and save settings.
2. Re-enable wheel emulation for a different button (1 or 3) and save settings.
3. Change button settings to button 2 and save settings.

This happens every time I reboot the computer.

At the moment the trackpoint shows as PS/2 Generic Mouse as per bug
492729.
