This problem seems to be well-known on the list, but I could not find a satisfying answer in the archive. Please excuse me if I did miss it, but then I could do with a pointer ;-)
I installed Mandrake 8.2 on a iMac DV 400 (slot loading) and I had to change my X configuration to use the "fbdev driver" (with the aty128fb kernel option). Except a maximum depth of 16bpp, everything works well if I boot in level 3 and then startx as a user, but if I launch kdm, the mouse freezes. I saw in the archive suggestions to comment out the "load dri" line in XF86Config, but I've got no such line. xdm and gdm only partially solve the problem: the first login is OK, but when I log out, mouse is dead again. It works with gdm when I check the option to restart X server each time, but I would like very much to understand what is going on. Any hint? Matthieu
