Hello, I had started a thread in the laptop section about not being able to operate my wireless card using current kernels because rfkill reports the hard block to be on (and my connectivity switch is a button (like a key) so I can't turn it on). While I still can I have built a 2.6.30.10 kernel (where rfkill reports the block to be off) as it was the kernel I was using in Fedora 11 where it used to work.
The problem with this kernel is that I can't get my touchpad or my keyboard to work in a X environment, and I have to use the vesa driver (intel driver reports something about the drm when modeset is on and doesn't detect any device when it's not). So, is there anything I could change in the kernel config to either make 2.6.30 work with evdev (it finds the touchpad for example, but reports no driver is found and ignores it) and the intel driver? Or anything I could change in the kernel config or files to bypass the hard block or at least detect it unblocked in newer kernels?
I have not tried 2.6.31 yet, but Arch-lts shows that block as on.
Any help is welcomed and really appreciated.
