Hi Paul, Fedora 4 on a i686 should work just fine. First you need to be sure you have that you have permissions to communicathen e with the device. As root do 'chmod 666 /dev/input/event*'. You can set this mod set this mod permanently using udev, look in /dev/udev/ permissions.d/50-udev-permissions. Then start evrouter in dump mode 'evrouter -d /dev/input/event*' turn the PowerMate around and see what evrouter spits out. For more details have a look at Alexios Chouchoulas homepage (the programmer who wrote evrouter) http://www.bedroomlan.org/~alexios/ coding_evrouter.html Hope this helps!
