You need to wave a dead chicken over the keyboard.

The first time after it boots up, make sure that you correctly
enter your name, password, and the entrails of a goat.

If that doesn't work, then try renaming your kernel module
directory so that you don't ket modules which are out of
date with your kernel.

But, FWIW, I really think the problem is the non-waving of the
dead chicken.
