Description of problem: Thinkpad Yoga 260 trackpoint is too slow even with maxed out speed setting. At the maximum setting, it's barely usable and ok for occasional use but risking pain and health effects for prolonged use. (In case this is relevant, I'm testing this under a GNOME 3 Xorg session due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1397898 ) Due to the recent changes in libinput trackpoint handling ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100982 ) I'm not sure what I need to do to fix this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Thinkpad Yoga 260 & Fedora 27 2. Start GNOME 3 Xorg session 3. Open settings, go to Devices > Mouse & Touchpad and max out mouse speed and try to use mouse pointer Actual results: too slow Expected results: faster than required (since obviously maxed out speed should have some buffer for people who like it extremely fast) Additional info:
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libinput-1.9.0-1.fc27.src.rpm
see bug 1509017 for the data I need (libinput measure trackpoint-range), thanks

jonas@cyberman:~$ libinput measure trackpoint-range libinput: measure is not a libinput command or not installed. See 'libinput --help' The bug you marked this a duplicate off says the trackpoint speed is too fast, however on this model it is _extremely too slow_ - barely usable at max speed.
It seems I was on an old libinput version. I updated now and the speed is nice! So it was too slow simply because I hadn't been shipped the upgrade which revamps all the code yet.
