Apparently this is an iBook specific issue, then, because I tried exactly
this
and is still doesn't work! Hmm... anybody have any clue what's different
between the trackpad on the Pismo and on the iBook? It's not like ADB isn't
working: the keyboard works fine, so ADB is working at least mostly fine.

angry
about this at some point...
