I'm CCing this to the list since I know how to unlock the keyboard and where it might be at. Comments?

Compiled in both drivers (I'll try with out the I<whatever> driver, I hate typing that number!). Right now, I can use pcmcia/cardbus cards in the laptop. Yenta doesn't seem to compile as a module right now tho.

I found out that if I move the mouse, the keyboard locks (gpm was running, /dev/psaux). The mouse also does not move. Now, I telnetted into the machine and started unmounting/killing things for a crash. I killed gpm and the keyboard started to work again. This didn't happen before when (no pcmcia compiled in before, now both yenta and intel cardbus/pccard is in kernel)
P.S. Can anyone recommend a good 10/100 cardbus card other than a 3com 3c575? I can't download at 100mbit (exceeding ~4 or 5mb/sec) and write to the hdd w/o the machine locking. Reply in private on this.
