Hi Dan,

        I am have just upgraded to your kernels and XF86 4.1.0 on my ibook
firewire (366 MHz). What I did is to use the Xconfigurator. It generated
new XF86Config-4 in /etc/X11. X started fine. The terminal somehow does
not behave! The keymap is wrong! None of the keys type right! Any
suggestions, I would be very grateful. Thanks,

-- Aman
P.S: I had a working keymap with XF86 4.0.3 - the one came with ydl 2.0!
