hi guys. i've got a 15" MBP C2D running Debian Etch. i just recompiled
my kernel (2.6.18.7 with mactel patches), rebooted, and found that
appletouch is no longer being loaded automatically. i know appletouch
needs to be loaded before usbhid.

first, i blacklist appletouch, usbhid and tsdev:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat /etc/modprobe.d/appletouch
blacklist appletouch
blacklist usbhid
blacklist tsdev

then i load them in the correct order:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat /etc/modules
loop
sbp2
appletouch
usbhid
ndiswrapper
fglrx

but when it boots, rather than going into KDE, it sends me to the
console. when i login and type ``lsmod | grep appletouch'', nothing is
listed.

if i then manually remove usbhid and insert appletouch and usbhid, i
can start X:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> sudo modprobe -r usbhid && \
sudo modprobe appletouch && \
sudo modprobe usbhid
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> echo $?
0

any ideas as to why appletouch is failing to load?
-Nick
