Sorry, I'll need more info here, please see this doc for what's likely required: https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/reporting-bugs.html

"Chicony ThinkPad X1 Tablet Thin Keyboard Gen 3 Consumer Control" same here as in bug 1648722, this isn't the touchpad device but some other device. I'll need the data from the "Chicony ThinkPad X1 Tablet Thin Keyboard Gen 3 Touchpad" device (/dev/input/event11 in the list-devices output but that may have changed since). That'll be the touchpad device, but I can't find a trackpoint device in the list, so this would indicate the trackpoint isn't supported by the kernel. There is only one other device that has a pointer capability and that's the one you attached. That device only has the pointer cap because it exports the horizontal scroll wheel, no x/y coordinates. Check the touchpad device and whether you see any events when you move the trackpoint. If not, we need to punt this to the kernel to enable the trackpoint first.

Are there any news on this? I'm running a custom kernel so if I could get some hints of what needs to added/changed, I could try to fix it myself.
Seems to be fixed: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hid/hid.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=8d5037dca7c2089f27e5903c2aecfc5bb10d7806
