Dell latitude: Enable middle click scroll on Ubuntu

It seems by default most, if not all, laptops with a pointing stick and a middle mouse button default to using paste for the middle mouse click assignment with XORG. You can change this so that it scrolls like it does on Windows.

Edit one of the files in /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/ or just create a new one and add:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Trackpoint Wheel Emulation"
MatchProduct "PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
Option "XAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "YAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Change MatchProduct to your pointing stick device. You can find the name of your device by running

xinput list

Log out and back in for it to take effect.

Dell E6400 and BartPE - Intel 82567lm drivers

I could not get bartpe to recognize the Intel 82567lm NIC in the Dell E6400 using the Dell drivers. The latest driver from Intel does work, however.

Intel Driver

Extract the files, copy the contents of the WinXP_2K folder to your BartPE drivers folder (make a folder called intel and then drop the driver files in there).
