open("/proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/proc/driver/nvidia/version", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/proc/bus/input/devices", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 20
read(20, "I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0001 Product="..., 8191) = 1364

This new version should fix this issue. All the developers are very busy now due to release, so this will be uploaded probably in a week or so.

Thanks for your patience! If you would need the package ASAP, please tell me, and i'll upload a .deb for you.

Thanks again for the report!
