When upgrading to the newer kernel and udev, did you also upgrade the LFS bootscripts and udev rules? Without them, you'll probably not get very far.Simon. I updated sucessfully udev to 096 as well as the rules and the LFS
bootscripts.
(The udevd error messages was due to the presence of 4 files from the old udev release in /sbin. After removing them, all was OK.) With this new udev, the recognition of the Logitech is OK and now at boot, two caracter devices (event0 and event1) are created in /dev/input/ In xorg.conf, I only need to specify in the mouse section: Section "InputDevice" ������� Identifier����� "MX1000" ������� Driver��������� "evdev" ������� Option��������� "Device" "/dev/input/event1" EndSection No special device needs to be created with some udev rules. All the buttons are recognized. However, using evdev has triggered another problem, with the keyboard this time: All the extra keys of the Logitech keyboard (multimedia etc...) are no longer recognized by X. The keyboard section is : Section "InputDevice" ������� Identifier� "Keyboard0" ������� Driver����� "kbd" ������� Option������� "Autorepeat" "250 30" ������� Option������� "XkbModel"�� "pc105" ������� Option������� "XkbLayout"� "fr" EndSection When using Mouse0 driver, they were well recognized, i.e they were producing something in showkey, but now with evdev, none of them produce anything with showkey. I tried to use the evdev driver for the keyboard (with /dev/input/event0 as "Device"), but then the Option "XkbLayout"� "fr" doesn't work anymore and I have an US keyboard instead of a french one (after googling, it appears that this is a bug with Xorg 6.9). I use a lot the extra keys of my logitech keyboard so it's impossible for me to abandon them. Any idea why evdev messes up the keyboard? Thanks |
