What should i do? I need testers. I request it (very often) but noone does
it. I have no pmac, i have a chrp with an msdos and ps/2 environment, so i
cannot test hfs and adb mice and keyboard ...

for (on pmac maschines)

    machine         : Power Macintosh

This is fixed and available for the next upload.
