Wait! Does your trackpad work? If so, then excuse me...
WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
Why doesn't mine work? What are you doing differently? Could it be the new
yaboot? Let me try it and see...
Nope, it isn't the new yaboot. Now I'm *really* confused... my trackpad
still doesn't work. I can (almost) guarantee that I'm not an idiot, but it's
beginning to look like I must be doing something wrong.

Later,
Robbie

Yeah, it works fine, and always did.  I dunno, when I went from the 2.2.15 kernels to the 2.2.17 I followed the instructions on BenH's page for the new input stuff.  I did notice
that the DOTConfig file provided with 2.2.17pre10-ben1 didn't enable the new input by default, but I turned that on when I compiled it.

I think the webpage also forgot to rm /dev/adbmouse; ln -s /dev/input/mice /dev/adbmouse

But, I may have just skipped that line by accident, and I did it later anyway.
