 ===UltraNav===
-The classic integrated pointing device in ThinkPads was always a trackpoint. With the T30 IBM introduced UltraNav, a combination of both the traditional [[TrackPoint]] coupled with a programmable touchpad. The technology for this combined pointing device comes from Synaptics. The TouchPad features several customizable features, including scrolling by movement along the edges, tap zones, and ignoring accidental touches.

 For advanced configuration of the touchpad, see the [[Synaptics TouchPad driver for X]] page.
-Select ThinkPads (at least some of R61) have ALPS dual pointing device (instead of Synaptics). This leads to some problems since ALPS refuses to provide specs how exactly TrackPoint is separated from TouchPad. Currently the choice is to configure TrackPoint to scroll properly with middle button pressed using generic "mouse" driver in X.Org '''OR''' apply tiny patch posted to [http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8864 bugzilla] and configure TouchPad as Synaptics (but this breaks TrackPoint scrolling). To enable Trackpoint scrolling and use the alps touchpad apply following patch: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/input-mouse-alpsc-handle-touchpoints-buttons-correctly.patch, which has been merged into the main kernel 2.6.31-rc1.

-Recently, A T42 with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 7 was also able to reproduce this issue.
+If the scroll-function of the touchpad is used (moving a finger on the right border of the touchpad), the task manager will often show an application or a window on its first tab named "Syn Visual Window". Sometimes, this stays on the screen and in the task manager. It is a 1x1 pixel large window that is usually white in color. If you move the mouse directly over this pixel, a little icon appears as if the middle TrackPoint button is used to scroll. This pixel can be removed by terminating the SynTP* processes in the task manager. Some claim that it can be removed by using the middle TrackPoint button, although this does not always seem to be the case.

 *: This only applies to the official UltraNav drivers; the generic drivers (as linked above) behave differently, making the touchpad scrolling act more like a physical scroll wheel.
