Hi Kevin:
First, the keyboard problem.
Review the lfs book of your version the section about:
"Configuring the Linux Console". This is the link to lfs-stable...
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter07/console.html
The difference between X6.9 and X7.0 is X6.9 is monolithic and X7.0 is
modular. The functionality between the two is the same.
If you still have keyboard problems, review the install for X and ensure
your /etc/X11/xorg.conf is correct. Here is a link to the xkb guide for
X7.0:
http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/X11R7.0/doc/html/XKB-Config.html
Second, the sudo problem.
I don't have a pam module, sudo. My config for sudo is in /etc/sudoers.
See man sudoers to create/edit this file. Use visudo to edit this file.
For example, I have the following two entries in my /etc/sudoers file.
# this means root can run everything
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
# this means users can run /sbin/shutdown -h now without a password
%users ALL=NOPASSWD:/sbin/shutdown -h now
Third, i don't have a laptop so i cannot suggest anything. Sorry.
Shawn
