Any kernel gurus here?

Upgraded to 2.6.0 a while back.  Everything (except the ones below) is
fine, the machine is fast, devices are recognised and working, etc.
BTW, I compile my own kernels, this one was no exception.

Issues:

1. APM+mouse.  I have a PS/2 mouse with the driver compiled as a
module.  Earlier when I suspended the system only a keystroke would be
able to unsuspend it.  However, now a mouse movement also unsuspends
the system.  Any clue how to disable that?  I prefer my systems to
remain suspended until explicitly told to unsuspend, and it's too easy
to brush against the mouse table when walking up and down.

2. KDE screenlock.  For some reason kcheckpass is refusing to accept
my password once the screen gets locked.  Used to work just fine with
2.4.x.  Weird...

3. CD writing.  How the heck DOES one write CDs with 2.6?  With 2.4.x
it was well-documented if not straightforward -- enable ide-scsi in
the kernel boot command line, do a scanbus and you're up and running.
With 2.6 apparently the ide-scsi is not needed any more.  So what is?
What modules need to be installed for writing CDs with cdrecord on an
IDE CD-R?  What's the device?

4. Modules.  Installed the new modutils and enabled module auto-load
in the kernel, but I still have to insert modules manually.

Any tips/pointers in the right direction for any/all of these issues
would be a great help.

Thanks,
