You'd want to check yaboot's man page for that. Reading about ybin would
be nice. But much nicer would be to not depend on the OF framebuffer,
using your native one, if possible (i.e., if there are appropriate
drivers for it in recent kernels---it's been a while since I played with
newworld computers).

Since you're using a 2.6 kernel, you should be using /dev/input/mice as
the device for mice.
Hope this helps, Rogério.
