Hmm. Actually, this issue seems unrelated to the touchpad patches. g-i 
freezes in the same way on my laptop if I try a daily netinst.

I've also tried the RC1 businesscard, and that works fine. Also, the first 
image that Attilio created (with his original patch) still worked fine.

I've narrowed it down to the change from kernel 2.6.17 to 2.6.18.
I guess I'll have to do a git-bisect to find the patch that broke vesafb 
or mouse handling for my laptop.
