    Default ipod mouse?

    ive seen some apps for using your ipod/iphone as a touchpad to control your mouse, but what i havnt seen is one that works with linux? everythings for mac osx and windows ive tried a few windows programs via wine dont seem to connect, is there or could some 1 make an app to control your mouse for a linux based operating system?

    I've tried various apps and cant say I;ve seen any that are compatible with linux will list apps and you can check them out if not done so already ;

    Webe , Airmouse pro , xremote ,jumi mouse , jumi gamer.

    My preference is air mouse hopefully one of these you have not tried and maybe supports linux or works under wine at least.

    thanks

    In knew there was another one.... logitech was the one app that just worked outright ... others involved a little tweaking of settings ... but thats most likely my adhoc wifi (setup just for the iphone).

    Ya logitechs Touchmouse is my fav. My only gripe is it lacks arrow keys and an esc key on the keyboard screen. Hopefully those shortcomings will get fixed. Lord knows I sent enough emails about it
