Driver Compatibility
At the time of the release of this driver, there were only a few ADB drivers available. Mac OS X includes an ADB mouse and keyboard driver. Also Kensington has released a version of their Mouseworks driver (http://www.kensington.com/) for their trackballs and mice. The iMate OS X driver is currently compatible with with the built in mouse and keyboard drivers as well as the Kensington Mouseworks driver.
Mac OS X also includes ADB drivers for the audio controls on the Apple Adjustable keyboards and AV displays as well as drivers for geometry and calibration adjustments for the AppleVision and ColorSync displays. However these drivers do not appear to function in the current Mac OS X release (10.0.4). They do not work with either the iMate or built in ADB (on B&W G3s) at this time.
Fixes/additions for 1.5
- Sleep should now work
- Generally more robust
- Added new User Client code for applications to communicate with ADB devices
- OS 9 ADB drivers and applications that communicate with ADB cannot be used with the current iMate OS X driver. This feature may be added in future versions of the driver.
