Actually, I installed via this "mini.iso" (similar to the debian one) put onto an usb stick by unetbootin. So everything besides the initrd basically (even the installer itself) was fetched from the state it was in on March 1st. So hard to say if I had "Alpha4" or "Alpha5". Everyday I do a script I called "ubup.sh" which basically cleans the apt-cache, autoremoves everything possibly there, dist-upgrades and autocleans again, while using a squid proxy on my "kamikaze" router to speed up things...

Today came an update of the kernel again (8-13 or something), now I am obviously running on the server kernel.

To veryfy (or falsify) that it is a transitional problem, I will just install the system now again.

And no, I do not have a frozen keyboard and remote access works o.k. But my mouse pointer and text cursor also dissappears after moving the ps/2 mouse a little. USB mouse is still dead - Sometimes I even manage to selet the user field with a click bevor my cursor dies...

I think, there are two or three things messed up, I still get the complaints about nvidia nforce2 and the synaptics init failure even in the virtual machine (on my other ibex box, running the 32bit version there)

I will also simply do a clean reinstall and see what's up then - keys etc. saved in svn anyway...
