[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



the system does performs slightly better after the crawler patch. but
the problem persists, cannot unlock the keys. the other buttons are
more responsive while using another applications.

but not i configured the ssh-server and i'm checking the dmesg while i
click the button. i get a lot of these:

EAC mode: play disabled, rec disabled

is it somehow related or a completely different beast?
