It's ok, though I'd prefer you just use the fedora-kernel-list for
questions like this. (I added you to the allowed-senders list incase you
didn't want to subscribe.)

There's no real meaty patches to either of these in F-14 or rawhide, so
I'm not sure. I'll ask Peter about the input stuff, but I suspect that's
close between F-14 and rawhide as well, so it's probably a legitimate
bug in 2.6.36...
