Glad it works, and thanks for testing!

It works just fine with moused. We just don't have a cursor on the 
console on PPC, though you can still select stuff if you can divine the 
position of the cursor in advance. It should also work fine in X. If you 
feel motivated, you could add a "trackpad" class in adb_mouse_attach(), 
so it doesn't say Unknown Pointing Device
