2.6.28 kernel - mkinitcpio Apple USB

Just thought I would post this in case it's important:

After updating to the 2.6.28-ARCH kernel I could not use my USB Apple keyboard to enter the LUKS pass key.

** Many other packages were updated too which I could list if anyone wants me too

Turns out that the 'hid_apple' module is not autoloaded anymore (it used to be) and needs to be added to the list of modules in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
