My setup is this:
iMate plugged into keyboard
Kensington ADB trackball plugged into iMate
Linux set to 3 button USB mouse
My result is:
a working mouse, but only 1 button
Whatever.
I guess I didn't think Apple was sending out machines formatted with HFS+.
Now I know why I cannot mount it. Oh well. Thanks for the info.
