+What: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/.../drift_time
+Date: Dec, 2014
+KernelVersion: 3.19
+Contact: linux-input@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ (RW) This parameter controls the period of time to test for a
+ ‘hands off’ condition (i.e. when no force is applied) before a
+ drift (noise) calibration occurs.
+
+ IBM Trackpoints have a feature to compensate for drift by
+ recalibrating themselves periodically. By default, if for 0.5
+ seconds there is no change in position, it's used as the new
+ zero. This duration is too low. Often, the calibration happens
+ when the trackpoint is in fact being used.
