Hi, I've successfully installed the 8.2 Beta on my 7500, but I'm having some odd problems with X/Xpmac. I initially selected XFree86 as the X server, and it installed without a problem. However, when I rebooted, the mouse did not function at all. I checked the XF86Config file, and everything looked fine, except that the mouse was listed as PS/2. I recalled that I had previously used IMPS/2, so I changed that, made sure that /dev/mouse was pointing to /dev/usbmouse (I'm using a generic USB mouse connected to a SIIG PCI USB card; never had any problems prior to this), and restarted. This didn't change anything, so I decided that maybe I should try Xpmac. Installed Xpmac, and restarted, and now the mouse worked, but the keymap was wrong (possibly because it is using the pc layout?). So my question is: what can I do to get one of the X servers working properly? I'm not quite sure how to pass arguments to Xpmac because it doesn't use the XF86Config file, and some of the documentation I've looked at appears to be somewhat dated because it doesn't seem to apply to the setup I can see.
Some additional info: 1) There do not appear to be any error messages when I boot into runlevel 5. /var/log/XFree86.0.log (or whatever) does not report any errors. 2) If I boot into runlevel 3 and start XFree86, everything appears to work properly; if I start Xpmac from runlevel 3, the keymaps are still incorrect. The console mouse appears to work properly, and the keymaps appear correct when I boot into runlevel 3. 3) I don't think it's a kernel issue, but I get the same results when I use a self-built 2.4.18-rc2-benh kernel. Any thoughts or suggestions? If you need any additional info, I can try to provide that as well. Thanks, dc
