If I would be able do this, I would have done it! On the other side: Why should I do it, if there is a module, which works just fine? But you could send me patches which I could test. > Given that very few > people actually have this hardware, It's a MSI CR620 notebook.

Why did you remove a working module if you can't ensure, that the replacement will cover the old module 100%? > If you could run 'git bisect' to try to find the problem, that would be > appreciated. I never saw it working with the ums_eneub6250 module. 2.6.38 used the keucr module, 2.6.39 and upper the broken ums_eneub6250. You could send me an URL which git repository to use in order to looking for the changes, which have been done. It would be nice, if you could tell me a starting point! Kind regards, Andreas
