By default, if for 0.5 + seconds there is no change in position, it's used as the new + zero. This duration is too low. Often, the calibration happens + when the trackpoint is in fact being used. -- 2.16.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
