Logitech G15 gaming keyboard

Hey I have installed the Logitech Control Center and it does not recognize my G15 gaming keyboard and I was wondering if it is either not supported or is there a way to tweak the control center to get it to work with the keyboard. Note that all the standard keyboard key work and volume controls just none of the other extra programable buttons.

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hi. I was also interested in using one of the Logitech gaming keyboards. I was interested in the older G15 because it has so many extra keys. Anyway, I found a website that gives instructions for getting "g15daemon and g15tools working on Mac OS X with the help of a codeless kext." Maybe that means something to you.

I also searched on the Logitech forums, but I couldn't find much. In any case there is discussion there of people who are using G15s with Macs. The situation is a bit complicated by the fact that there are two G15s. They apparently discontinued the older one and it is not even on their website anymore. Here is a link to someone from the forum who uses a G15 with a mac.
