What is ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/BETA/devel/machines/apple_performa640 0_200/ meant for?
It contains the device tree of these PowerMacs, its intended for4 the hackers to check what hardware(-values) are present in these machines. If you want to donate these info for your own machine, jsut run the suse_hw_info.sh script in ppc/update/BETA and send the output to ppc@suse.de
It does not contain anything, but SuSE 6.4 for PowerPC is running fine on my Performa 6400/200-
Our Performa 6400/200 works fine here.
except that I cannot emulate middle/right mouse buttons.
There are two emulation types right now. We had our own hack to the kernel in 6.4 with 2.2.14. Press alt/option and the mouse button to emulate the middle key and command/apple and the mouse button to emulate the right key. This emulation is not perfect, we use now the stuff that was introduced with the new input layer. This is included in all 2.2.16 kernels and later versions. Look at this page for some details. http://home.munich.netsurf.de/Franz.Sirl/inputppc.html There is no new input stuff in XF4, so don't try to use "keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes " or you will screw up your keyboard. My /sbin/init.d/boot.local looks like that: echo "1" > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation echo "88" > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button2_keycode echo "87" > /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode It maps the keys F11 and F12 to the middle and right mouse button. Thats also not perfect, you want to use a 3 button mouse with a Unix system. Just because X11 is so braindead.... Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented...
