Duh!  I forgot to mention that.  It's known problem and I
didn't have enough time to track it down so far.

I'm not sure, but it should work unless iMate needs special
driver for working under MacOS.  I have a USB <---> PS/2
converter myself, which doesn't work ether.

The kernels are not built from full stock current source.
There are some cache issue in the newer machines and the
kernels include a fix to it as well as ADB one.  Without
these change, the machines are not usable at all.  So I hope
they are incorporated to main source tree and 1.5 branch.

Hmm, APA-1480 is in cardbusdevs, which product ID is 0x6075.
I don't know if cardbus is supported well on macppc.  Adding
the line

ahc*	at cardbus? dev ? function ?

to config file might change, but at least vender/product ID
should show in boot message.

OK, I'll make some test kernels with above change later.
(Sorry I'll be offline at this weekend)
