Right click on MacBook Pro

When the MacBook Pro 17-inch and MacBook were announced, Apple included a “right-click” feature on the new notebook. The “right-click” on MacBook Pro works by placing two of your fingers on the trackpad and click.

Unfortunately, Apple didn’t include the right-click feature with the MacBook Pro 15-inch. Some people on OSX86 Project forum has made the new driver available on the net. This new driver will replace your current MacBook Pro 15-inch driver with a new driver from the MacBook Pro 17-inch. An installer is also distributed to restore the driver incase Apple release a new update.

I have tried installing the new driver and it worked on my 15-inch MacBook Pro. Beware, install this at your own risk. I will not be responsible if anything happen to your OS X installation or your MacBook Pro. If you’re not sure, wait for an official release from Apple.

It’s about time it caught up with my iBook G4 using iScroll2.
