new Thinkpad T490 (if required replace the device-name and numbers)
Ubuntu 20.04.2
This property hides the "MB2-press event" for scrolling the screen with the "special Thinkpad red-Pointing-button hardware"
libinput Button Scrolling Button (343): 2
The "MB2-press event" is not fired at "MB2 press" ... it fires at "MB2 release". So in proviewR no "MB2-hold and move" is possible.
We need to "disable this red-button-scrolling" (not needed, use 2-finger-pad-scrolling) by setting
libinput Button Scrolling Button (343): 0
