This drifting is a function of adaptive software in the tp which checks occasionally to make sure the strain guages in the trackpoint are centered. If it happens to check while you are moving the cursor, it adjusts itself to take this as non-movement. When you stop moving the cursor, the thinkpad thinks the cursor is still when it is in fact moving the oposite direction. The solution is to relax and let it go until it checks centering again (a few seconds). If you catch it early and relax, it corrects very quickly. If you keep fighting it, it will just get worse. Think of it as zen training. ---------------------------- Victor Kress Geophysical Laboratory 5251 Broad Branch Road N.W.
