Note that this is a temporary account and I am temporary running on a
Fedora 15 CD till I get my new Linux from scratch system to work. I
need help.
X.Org X Server 1.14.0
I think that I followed the instruction and this is not the first time
I have built the X11 server. I started building XFree86. Everyting
appeared to go OK but when I started it for the first time with
"startx" it opened with TWM and looked OK but the mouse and the
keyboard didn't work. A google search reveals that others have the
same problem but I didn't really see the solution to the problem.
X is installed with PREFIX=/usr/X11R7 Which is where I installed it
last time although on a different disk.
I checked the X log. The module path appears correct:
[ 35004.515] (==) ModulePath set to "/usr/X11R7/lib/xorg/modules"
The configure file for the mouse: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/mouse-0.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "evdev"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Name" "Logitech M100"
EndSection
looks OK, but the X log reports:
[ 35012.524] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Logitech USB
Optical Mouse (/dev/input/mouse0)
[ 35012.524] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
and the mouse and the keyboard simply do not work with X although they
work fine in text mode.
