it is working. I will post my config today evenying. please read <http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/post-halloween-2.5.txt> (the server seems to be down unfortunately, may be it is available somewhere else). make sure you have just one framebuffer driver selected, having several may lead to problems. Olivier, please consider to aply patch <http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=105928711921190&w=2>, it would allow me to add 2.6 support to libsensors. I have not got any reply from lkml about it :( but having working implementation would increase chances it gets applied. 2all - YOU NEED MKINITRD AND INITSCRIPTS. Without them 2.6 is only partially usable. mkinitrd can be uploaded - it is ok. initscripts need more work, specifically I am now working on new hotplug with 2.6 support and better initscripts integration you may currently need to load mouse drivers manually. 2all - please, Cc me on this thread
