Re: MorphOS 3.2 on a Powerbook G4 - some issues

1.25GHz suggest an older PowerBook (one of those only supported since 3.2), these have ADB keyboards and trackpad which brings some problem compared to USB variants used in PB5.6-5.9
a) left and right "command"/"Amiga" key send the same keycode
b) no support for 2 finger gestures on the trackpad

a) same issue applies for all iBooks (last models have the 2 finger USB trackpad, but all have ADB keyboards), I worked around this issue by reassigning some shortcuts to ALT -.... instead of LAMIGA-...

b) AFAIR there were some attempts to trick around this issue, but not sure what ever came of it (don't have anything with ADB-trackpad here)

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else
