Hey guys,

The kernel is smaller becuase I stripped it (removed debugging symbols)
before packaging it up.

I'm not sure why there's a problem with netstat/vmstat, but I'm also
experiencing the same issue here.  The kernel I packaged up does not
remove the PIU (touch-screen) support from the kernel, so perhaps there
is some kind of conflict with this and the TP driver.

I will look into it later tonight and let you know what I find.
