Hi,

I can't a functional mouse button two. I have tried useing kernel args
adb_buttons=1,103,111 for f11/f12, I've also tried adb_buttons=1,122,120
for f1/f2. Niether works. I get Mouse button3 bye this method, but
running X I need button two. I suspect this may be related to the
mapping of my keyboard. I have one of the AppleDesign extended keyboard
that came with Beige G3s. I think it may be slightly different that the
standard Extended Keyboard II. Any ideas? XPmac used to work fine with
opt-1/opt2.

Run "showkey" to display the key codes for your keyboard. You must do this
while X is *not* running.

And maybe skip the "1". I just have two entries in that field
(adb_buttons=number,number) and it works.

(Of course, I have no idea whether it's *right*. Just that it works.)

--Z

"And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these were the
borogoves..."

or xev while in X, and subtract 8 from the event code there (IIRC).
showkey didn't come with my installation of linuxppc. 103,111 works on
the Lombard Powerbook but probably not on other keyboards.

Skip the '1' for sure. Though that should have mapped one of the keys
right at least (while taking out whatever is mapped on 1, I think that
would be 's').

definately get rid of the 1 there. I was wondering the very same thing
and when i put "adb_buttons=103,111" into the kernel args, it worked!
F11 and F12 are now my other mouse buttons!
