You're in Wearforge -> Wearhard -> CirqueCruiseCat
The Cirque Cruise Cat ( http://www.cirque.com/products/cruisecat.shtml ) is a 2 button touchpad that has 4 virtual buttons. Three of the virtual buttons are programmable; the fourth activates gesture recognition. Unfortunately, as of yet, only Win9X, NT4 and win2000 have drivers that support the virtual buttons.

Linux has software available to handle the gesture recognition (libStroke - for X - http://www.etla.net/libstroke/ ) provided the virtual buttons can be interpritted and "programmed". Could GPM ( http://www.freshmeat.net/projects/gpm/ ) be the right tool for the job? If this can be accomplished, the touch pad can be a keyboard as well as a mouse.
