🚧 Changes:

_{For all changes, see the full commit log.}

• cdfb5c8 - update upstream kernel to 6.6.63
• 3615afb - explicitly set DONT_VT_SWITCH_STATE in xorg conf in case the kernel is booted in debug mode so that we can use CTRL+F1 to switch to a console.
• d4fcd58 - update hotkeyd to 0.4.5 to fix a segfault on certain systems.
• 1b4cd5d - added/revised some device relevant kernel config options to get the touchpad support (Synaptics TouchPad) for certain hardware (DELL Latitude) finally running.
• 15ca5b0 - enable more mouse device relevant kernel config options.
• b713794 - enable CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV and CONFIG_MOUSE_SYNAPTICS_USB to enable synaptics touchpad support.
• c8c8408 - update buildroot to latest 2024.08.2
• 736dfeb - bump qutselect to latest 3.10
• e0d0b4f - add BR2_PACKAGE_XDRIVER_XF86_INPUT_SYNAPTICS to support certain touchpads.
• 7c39b1d - add /lib/udev/rules.d/99-ignore-usb.rules to ignore/remove certain usb devices interfering without use cases.
• cd350b4 - fix issue with idle-check.sh cronjob not sourcing in global env variables correctly because cron only uses a minimal set of env variables. Now idle-check.sh sources in /etc/profile for receiving the global variables correctly.
