When I start X in BLFS 7.8, the screen works but mouse and keyboard are dead. A subsequent check of /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows that it has get stuck just before it should have loaded evdev.
The correct sequence should be: [ 25.988] (II) intel(0): Setting screen physical size to 270 x 203 [ 26.440] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Power Button (/dev/input/event1) [ 26.440] (**) Power Button: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 26.440] (**) Power Button: Applying InputClass "Keyboard0" [ 26.440] (II) LoadModule: "evdev" In fact the line setting the screen size is the last to be printed. There is no detection of hardware. To check whether the problem perhaps lies with my 7.8 /dev directory, I chrooted from 7.7 and tried again with the same result. I have not seen this problem in any previous lfs build. I would say at a guess that something is wrong with the udev rules but I don't know enough about udev to hazard a guess.
