Hey all,
     I've just installed YDL 4.0 as a dual boot with mac osx 10.4 on  
a 1.5 ghz Powerbook G4.  There were a couple of funky things which I  
had to work through at the beginning, which I've worked out, one of  
which, however, remains a problem.  YDL 4.0 did not configure my  
trackpad.  It sees that it's there (when I run hardware checks) but I  
had to use a USB to install the system and that's, I suppose, what  
the system configured as my mouse.  The trackpad gets no response  
whatsoever.  I could use a detailed description of how to go about  
configuring the trackpad for YDL.  The only stuff I've been able to  
locate online was relatively unhelpful, and the man page for "mouse"  
doesn't deal with this problem.  Nor does the X11 README.mouse.   
Shame.  Anyway, I really appreciate your help.  Thanks,

Scott
