Can Anyone Fix Basilisk Ii For Z?

[icruise]

As I noted in this thread from a while ago, Basilisk II on the Zaurus works surprisingly well, except for the fact that the mouse pointer seems to "drag" all the time (at least I think that's what it's doing -- in any case, the mouse pointer cannot be used reliably). This is very frustrating, because the program seems to work very well otherwise, and would be genuinely useful for a lot of things if you could actually use the mouse.

Are there any developers who would be interested in taking a look at this? I'm not even sure if it's possible to fix this (whether the source code is available, etc) but I would like to make it clear that at least one person is (VERY) interested in having a usable version of Basilisk II for the Zaurus. I'd be willing to contribute $50 to a bounty to see that this is done. Not much, but it's a start. My only real requirements are that it work on the 3100 in its native resolution and that the mouse cursor allow normal operation of the Mac OS. Any ideas about this?

Have you looked for source and tried to compile it? I thought it was opensource

Have you looked at mini vmac for pdaxrom?

just suggestions....

Thanks for the reply.

1. No, I haven't tried compiling it because I haven't the foggiest idea how to do so, and I don't really have the time or the interest to learn how. Even if I did, I can't imagine how compiling it myself would solve the problem, since presumably something needs to be changed in the code to correct it, and I'm not a programmer.

2. No, because I need to run the stock sharp ROM. But I will look into it, since I'm interested in pdaxrom.

Hi, i just posted on another thread but what you can do is install debian basilisk under pocket workstation (using fbvnc not x/qt). This gives the option of using the address button on the keyboard to click instead of screen taps. Works perfectly for me.
