If you have an USB mouse, I can send you (later, once I get back home) my
XF86Config that defines two pointers, one for the builtin laptop trackpoint and
another one for the external USB mouse.

The cool thing is that you can plug/unplug the external mice, use the wheelmouse
on the external mouse and use the the middle mouse button for copy/paste (the
wheel is also a button)

Cheers,
Olivier.
