Dell E6400 Users: tried to implement the workaround stated by Tommi, but
with no effect.

However, creating a fdi file in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-wheel.fdi that
looks like this has proven consistent over several
suspend/resume/restart cycles:

<match key="info.product" string="DualPoint Stick">
 <merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">true</merge>
 <merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="string">2</merge>
 <merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxsisMapping" type="string">4 5</merge>
 <merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>

You may have to alter the “info.product” key for your system to make it
work. After restarting hal and the xserver, that gave me my middle
button scroll back and I’m a happy (and productive) man again.  Thanks
to Michael Volgt for the workaround
