Free Focused Scroll is an advanced trackpad driver to support Apple Powerbooks and iBooks using ADB trackpads. It acheives its advanced features by running the trackpad in what is called `absolute' mode. This means that the driver can tell exactly what part of the pad your finger is touching. The Apple driver (and iScroll2) both run the pad in `relative' mode, and while that facilitates a simpler driver because the pad does most of the work, it is very limiting of what you can do.
Most notably running in `absolute' mode allows the driver:
-Two-finger scrolling like the new Apple laptops with the new USB trackpads;
-Linear scroll regions that can be placed anywhere. This adds the functionality of a scroll-wheel;
-Hotspots to bind taps in the corners of the trackpad to alternate mouse buttons;
-Ability to remap the physical button to perform any type of mouse click.
The driver is NOT designed for use with the new 2005 PowerBooks. Do not worry about installing this driver, though. The installer will only allow it to be installed on compatible Macs and the uninstaller is pretty foolproof.
Requirements: OS X 10.3.9 or later.
