I appreciate your response. Note that my problem is much earlier than X. I cannot switch to the console, because booting stops before my discs are mounted. During bootup I need to give a password on the console so the kernel and decrypt my hard drive partitions. Usually my 2.6.26 kernel says: Feb 1 21:04:22 eione kernel: [ 10.177451] input: Apple Computer Apple Intern al Keyboard/Trackpad as /class/input/input4 Feb 1 21:04:22 eione kernel: [ 10.204833] input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.10 Keybo ard [Apple Computer Apple Internal Keyboard/Trackpad] on usb-0001:10:1a.0-2 but I think the bpo.1 and bpo.2 kernels only listed the uid device number there. -- Managing Director - Owner: www.intevation.net (Free Software Company) Deputy Germany Coordinator: fsfeurope.org.
