I'm not sure on the keyboard thing, Effectively, the laptop freezes
up, then turns off whenever you try to test the keyboard and aux
ports. The old fix was to just patch those functions to always return
no error, without actually testing. I've gotten it to boot now, with
the hint, but it appears that the keyboard is unusable.
