I have the same problem as you do, but in my case the ambient lights |
| 2 |
sensor doesn't work either. |
| 3 |
This happened after a switch from 2.6.15 to 2.6.16. I think the reasons |
| 4 |
might be in the I2C module that has been changed. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
In the 2.6.15 it was I2C_KEYWEST while in 2.6.16 it is named I2C_POWERMAC. |

Wrote an email to the author of the pbbuttons but had no reply. It would |
| 8 |
be great if we can sort out the problem in this list. |
