Making use of this in a new High Sierra hackintosh I'm working on (Thinkpad P50; see sig), and as part of that I updated my copy of this kext, and have thereby discovered a bit of an oddity - when scrolling by holding down the middle mouse button and moving the trackpoint up and down, the driver appears to be sending MouseUp/MouseDown events between each ScrollWheel event. (Confirmed this with Karabiner's EventViewer.)

This is a tad awkward, because it means anything my mouse pointer hovers over while I'm scrolling receives a middle-click. In a web browser that uses middle-click to mean "open this link in a new tab", this means that scrolling down a ****** page can get me a sudden explosion of 20+ new tabs. Which is... less than ideal. :(

Is this something that can be addressed? (It didn't do this on my El Capitan Thinkpad W520; that was using version 1.8.21. I'm using 1.8.29 on this Thinkpad P50.)
Thanks!

There is a separate fork (by tluck) that may address some specific issues with Thinkpads.

That did indeed address this particular issue. Thanks for the tip!
 
I upgraded VoodooPS2Controller.kext from 1.8.29 (11-30-2017) to 1.8.32 (04-24-2018) on my DIY Desktop. After upgrade (replaced kext (Release), daemon (Release), plist), rebooted and configured my PS2 mouse. Even with tracking speed on maximum, mouse tracking was V-E-R-Y S-L-O-W and took forever to navigate across my 1440x900 display. Reverted to 1.8.29 (replaced kext, daemon, plist), rebooted. Mouse tracking speed is great with 1.8.29. My system is very old, so I don't expect a fix - just wanted to let you know. Debug files (with 1.8.29) are attached. I never ran them for 1.8.32. Note that I also installed 1.8.32 on my Thinkpad T61 / OSX Sierra (same upgrade procedure) and it runs fine.

Note about attached problem report. Tried to run gen_debug multiple times - kept complaining about Clover-F4 files (even though I kept deleting them, rebooting and pressing F4 repeatedly). I finally gave up and produced the attached files. I didn't look too closely, but Clover-F4 in version 4449 may not be working correctly on my DIY Desktop.

System Specs:
  • Gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L (BIOS F10f)
  • CPU: Xeon E5450 (771->775)
  • Memory: 4GB DDR2-800
  • CLOVER 4449 (Legacy)
  • OSX Sierra 10.12.6
  • NVidia 8600GTS / Web Drivers 378.05.05.25f07 / 1440 x 900
