iBook G4 12" 1.33Ghz - Problems with touchpad and sound

[regeurk78]

Hi,

I've just installed Gentoo on my new iBook, but there are two problems, I can't solve.

The latest iBook has a trackpad which supports scrolling if you take two fingers. Nice feature, but I don't know how to get this touchpad working at all. I listened on several devices using the touchpad, but I didn't find the right one. Has anyone an idea how to get the touchpad working?

Second problem is the sound. I can play sound with external speakers without any problems, but with the built-in speakers I hear nothing.

Thank you, but this doesn't seem to work with my iBook I can load the module without any problems, but the touchpad doesn't work.

I have sound on internal speakers now, and my touchpad works.

Have fun.
