I have gotten the Macally 2 button adb mouse to work with kernel 2.2.12.

This mouse is the only multi button adb mouse I could find that's
currently being produced, but it's not suppported out of the box w/YDL
CS1.1. I found a patch for LinuxPPC 2.2.13 written by Giullano Pochini
which works on 2.2.12 as well. To use the mouse you must apply this
patch to the kernel source (the only file affected is
drivers/macintosh/mac_kybd.c) & rebuild the kernel. So, if you've got
an adb mac and want to use a commonly available 2 button mouse I'll be
happy to send you the patch - its not big.
