This version has support for usb mice as well as adb mice. This is a bugfix release: - includes fix to allow auto vt switching for Mac-On-Linux (MoL) users - fix for seg-faults during Xpmac startup for machines that don't have /dev/usbmouse ***Please upgrade to at least Xpmac revision 8 because of bug fixes for serious usbmouse problems that can cause hangs, lost mouse clicks, etc**** Please give it a try and let me know if you run into problems: AFTER making sure you have tried everything in the ReadThisFirst.txt file!). The URL's given below are on my work desktop workstation which I need to do my research and can't handle a big load so please check at Robert Shaw's G3 site http://www.linuxppc.org/blueg3/ first for revision 9 before downloading it from the URL's given below. (ps. I have not given Robert much of a head's up (again!) so if you can wait a day or so it should soon appear on his site). The URLs are: ftp://khendricks.ivey.uwo.ca/pub/ http://khendricks.ivey.uwo.ca/rage128_usb/ If you have trouble downloading this file using netcape, remember to use the right mouse button (or under MacOS click and hold the link to download the file as source (versus text).). Note, some netscapes automagically gunzip the file for you without removing the .gz from the name. Check the file sizes to be sure what your netscape does. Have fun! Kevin p.s. If you need or want the source, e-mail me directly and I would be happy to send it to you as an e-mail attachment. To build the source, you must place it in the XFree 3.3.5 source tree to replace the original powermac directory using Tom Rini's ppc source rpm. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
