Title:
  Synaptics trackpoint detected as generic mouse on Fujitsu t2010 laptop

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  On a Fujitsu t2010 laptop, the synaptics trackpoint device is not
  detected as a trackpoint by the kernel.  Instead, it is detected as
  "PS/2 generic mouse", and as a result can't be used with the Synaptics
  driver, or gsynaptics.

  This bug exists both in Gutsy, as well as in Hardy Alpha 4

  Relevant lines from Xorg.0.log
