    [iMac 24"] Many problems

    Hey everyone!

    I have a few problems with my new iMac. I should be this one. Nevertheless, I'll add my lshw, lsusb, lspci, etc to this post.

    Problem 1
    My scrollwheel on my Bluetooth Mighty Mouse does not work. It doesn't work vertically ánd horizontally. I checked all /dev/input's, but none of them seems to be attached to the scrollwheel.

    Problem 2
    My speakers don't work. I've already fixed the headphone jack at the back of the iMac, but I can't get the speakers to work.

    Problem 3
    I'm unable to shutdown my Mac. Ubuntu says it's shutdown, but it isn't. Even the SysRq keys do not work.
    Only shutdown works, reboot doesn't. Since I rarely reboot, I say: "FIXED!"

    Problem 4
    Wireless does seem to work, but it's not able to pick up any networks. 'STA from Broadcom' is installed (with Jockey).
    FIXED!

    Problem 5
    Not really important, but I'd like to use my Apple Remote. I've never worked with IR remotes before, so any step in the right direction would be great =).
    FIXED!

    Thanks in advantage!

    Some people report issues with 64-bit + Wireless + iMac. I'll install a 32-bit version of Ubuntu and report back ..

    Edit: 32-bit fixed it.
