Howdy Sebastian (sorry if you got this multiple times),
Sometime in February Sebastian Henschel assaulted the keyboard and
produced:
| hm, i do not think so. i have scrollwheel functionality with the help of
| mouseemu (http://www.geekounet.org/powerbook/files/mouseemu.tar.gz) on
| a 15 months old Powerbook, too.
| there might be some kernel modules missing. what does your .config look
| like? is CONFIG_INPUT_ADBHID enabled?
I'm using the stock debian/sarge 2.4 kernel. This is the output
for 'uname -a':
Linux absent 2.4.27-powerpc #1 ven sep 3 09:34:51 CEST 2004 ppc GNU/Linux
Do I need to compile my own? Can you tell me how to get this information
if I didn't compile it?
| you should see some output when you "cat < /dev/input/mice" and move
| your finger on the trackpad.
Yeah I tried this on a lot of different devices and I had no luck :(.

| does any of the reports listed on http://tuxmobil.org/apple.html help
| you?
This looks more useful that the linux-laptop.net page.

What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans,
and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is brought
under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of
liberty and democracy?
