Trying to get middle button on a T-400 to act like a middle click. Windows 10.

[mcveigh]

I have a Thinkpad T-400 running Linux Mint and Windows 10.
In Linux it works fine. But in Windows 10 I want the middle button on the trackpoint buttons to act as a middle click.
Mainly I use this to open links in new tabs. It used to work fine in Win7. How can I get it to work correctly again?

Have you got the Ultranav driver and utility installed?

If not, you'll want to get them (driver AND utility, they're separate). I doubt there are final drivers out for W10 yet, but you could always try the W8 ones. I've had luck using W7 drivers on W8, so who knows...

After that, Control Panel > Mouse > Ultranav > do whatever. At least that's how it goes for my Thinkpads.

I got them. I found on a think pad forum some mention that lenovo removed the middle click option in a software update. Some people said if you installed an older version it would work. I haven't found one though.

Ah darn.

Just did some poking around, there's a link to an older driver at the bottom of the first page here. If you can figure out what version killed the functionality I can look for an older copy, I usually save drivers.
