I have FreeBSD ppc working on a g4 macbookpro 12in. It works pretty awesome. The only nit I have is the mouse has a funny bug where after I hit a mouse button, then the keyboard is unresponsive until I touch the trackpad to move the mouse. I'm wondering if there's a fix in place for this? One other question, is there a way to make holding down another key + hitting mouse button act as 2nd and 3rd mouse buttons? Linux seems to have this feature: http://box.matto.nl/linuxibook.html look under "Pasting with one button mouse in Linux": > The iBook comes with a single mouse button. This makes pasting a new > challenge.
