PowerBook (FireWire) with the original Open Firmware version (2.3, latest
is 4.1.8).  Perhaps updating would help?

I've never had the iMate USB keyboard work in Open Firmware, only the
internal ADB keyboard.  Actually, I just tried an Apple USB keyboard and it
works!

In Open Firmware, both the internal ADB keyboard and the USB keyboard work.
Once NetBSD starts, only the USB keyboard input is used.  With XF86 I can
specify either one as input device.

In any case neither one produces the proper delete character.  Does anyone
know how to get XF86 to use the delete key as delete with either the
internal ADB keyboard or an USB keyboard?

As to mice, I can indeed use XF86Config to specify which one is the input.
Any suggestions on how to program the scroll wheel in XF86?

:)Well, unplugging USB conecter losts keyboard/mouse on my

I tried that and it didn't help any.  My guess at this point is that for
some reason NetBSD doesn't like the iMate.  Does anyone have any
suggestions on how to get it working?  Again, the iMate is an USB device
with an ADB plug so you can use your legacy ADB keyboards and mice.  It's
recognized by the NetBSD kernel as a USB keyboard and mouse, even if no ADB
devices are plugged into it.

Since I don't actually own any USB keyboards, I'd really like to get it
working.

:)USB keyboard/mouse is useable once the above problem is

OK, thanks!  Any idea how to use them with Xmacppc (since XF86 doesn't
support a lot of the older machines yet)?

Any ideas how to use the serial devices (modem/serial port adapter)?  I
*really* want to be able to use NetBSD as my router using the ricochet
modem.

Thanks for the help!
