150751 - IBM Thinkpad 600 trackpoint center button will not scroll windows

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 20618

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Paul Goelz]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530
BuildID:    2002053012

Using the Thinkpad 600 Trackpoint mouse, windows do not scroll while holding the
blue center button.  This feature works 100% in all other programs.  I am aware
that this was reported earlier for the TP770, but it was not clear if the OS was
Win98.  It also is not clear if the problem is still under investigation.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any page in Mozilla.
2. Hold blue center button and move trackpoint.
3. Observe page does not scroll in horizontal or vertical.  
4. I have just noticed that items in dropdown boxes within a page DO scroll with
the trackpoint.  But the overall page never scrolls.  

Actual Results:  No page scroll.  

Expected Results:  The page that has focus should scroll horizontally or
vertically, depending on trackpoint movement with the center blue button held.  

Trackpoint scrolling works 100% in all other programs on this machine.  I have
tried all configurations of the "mouse wheel" settings in PREFERENCES.  Nothing
works.

It will possible work if you update your mouse-drivers.
