The following is a duplicate of a message that I originally sent to the wrong address. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. When the cursor starts creeping while using the Trackpoint, temporarily putting the ThinkPad into "Suspend mode", by either closing the lid, or by pressing Fn + F4 from the keyboard, will cause the cursor to be stable again when the computer resumes from Suspend mode (after the lid is re-opened or by pressing Fn on the keyboard). The computer checks the position of the Trackpoint during the resume from Suspend & recalibrates the center to that location. (My computer is a 701cs. I do not know if other ThinkPad model Trackpoints behave identically to the one on this machine.) If the cursor starts creeping during a session using the modem, etc., I usually tolerate it -- & keep a steady pressure on the Trackpoint to control the cursor -- until after logging off, because Suspend mode shuts down the modem. Hope this helps. GMA
