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?
