@Brad: I downloaded and installed the 2.6.28-11.43~lp297213bradf1 kernel packages. More specifically, I installed the packages
linux-headers-2.6.28-11_2.6.28-11.43~lp297213bradf1_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.28-11-generic_2.6.28-11.43~lp297213bradf1_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic_2.6.28-11.43~lp297213bradf1_i386.deb
linux-libc-dev_2.6.28-11.43~lp297213bradf1_i386.deb
with `dpkg -i linux-*.deb` and rebooted.

hdaps_ec did not show up at lsmod, and hdaps-pivot and hdaps-gl did not work right away. After `modprobe hdaps_ec` it worked well, cool!

@axx83 and jango: Complaining in a bug report does not help advance your case. It just makes everyone involved a little bit sad, unmotivated and less likely to follow up. Even though a working hdaps module is a really nice feature for us who have built-in accelerometers, it is not really of something most people have and the computer is totally usable without it, so I understand that it gets lower priority than bugs which causes crashes, hangs and loss of data.
