Yes I used to do so on PPC, but I never got it working on the MacBook Pro + CentOS (and I really spent a lot of time trying). I found a workaround using accessibility features but it is a bit heavy and with a few side effects (I can put it if you want though). In the end I end up doing the following: - I have a partition with shared data (documents, java source code, maven repository, etc.). - when I'm settled somewhere I use CentOS with a mouse - when I'm on the move I use Ubuntu (where the touchpad is working perfectly => the related driver was added around 2.6.27 if I'm not mistaken) - both OS link to the shared directories (I forced the Ubuntu user id to 500, in order to be compatible with CentOS) - dreaming of when RHEL/CentOS 6 is out and reporting bugs on RHEL 6 Beta 2
