Cool.
Thanks Quentin!
The only problem now, is that the third button STILL binds to the
right hand control key no matter WHAT i use in the adb_button
directive.
Without an extended keyboard attached, there is NO third button (no
right hand control button on my laptop) (very annoying!).
Any more help out there?
Thanks,
Blair.
