600m and keyboard with stickpointer - does it work? is there a driver for it?

Question

Hi, I have an Inspiron 600m and recently I replaced my old keyboard (part #1M722) with a new one that was claimed to be compatible with the 600m (part #1m745). I chose the 1M745 because it came with a touchstick, or stickpointer, the little eraser nub between the keys g, h and b. I connected it and all of the keys work, but the stickpointer does not work. I tried to install the driver for Alps Glidpoint/Stickpointer but it still does not recognize the stickpointer. Is there something else i have to do to get it to work? Or is the stickpointer just not compatible with my computer? Please help.   System info : Dell 600m Intel Pentium M Processor 1700MHz 1024Mb Ram Windows XP

Tried linux, windows, no way to get that stickpointer to work on the 600M with the 1m745 keyboard..

if anyone knows of any tip that can help us, please post ideas in this thread.
