On my first report I was using latest Lucid Lynx Alpha available at
2010-04-17.

That was the default kernel (2.6.32) and was detected as "AlpsPS/2 ALPS
GlidePoint", at this point neither horizontal or vertical scroll worked.

Then in 2010-05-19 I updated to Kernel 2.6.34 from PPA Kernel Mainline,
vertical scrollbar started to work but mouse were  detected as Generic
Wheel Mouse.

Later I upgrade Xserver/Xorg using ~xorg-edgers PPA but things actually
got worse, as now I can't longer do simulated middle click by pressing
simultaneously left and right click buttons.

I tried 2.6.35 RC3 but nothing changed, yesterday I tried 2.6.35 RC4 and
surprise! keyboard/touchpad stop from working at all.

It's like support for ALPS is actually getting worse :P
