Title: Q & OS 4.2 any clues how to get the trackpad working?

Out of interest I thought I'd give Q (qemu) a shot, it installed OK but I was unable to get the mouse/trackpad to respond, I did try to install it twice and got the same problem.  I did try and alter the setting in /usr/Devices/System.config from bus mouse and also PS2 but it made difference, can anybody tell me if they worked round the problem?.  I'm trying to install on a MacBook Pro

Title: Patched version

Do you have the patched version? If so, the NEXTSTEP 3.3 tutorial here (http://www.nextcomputers.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=201) should work with OPENSTEP 4.2 (if you change some things). Instead of the Default VGA, use Generic SVGA. Also, use the SoundBlaster 8+16 card. I know that with the patched version, the mouse works, but I don't think the trackpad does. I will try to prepare a tutorial similar to the one I linked to.
