--- Begin Message ---Package: xserver-xorg Version: 1:7.4+4 Severity: normal Dear XSF, After a fresh installation of my new development system, I ended up with a graphical login (great, I expected worse for my ATI HD3300 on-board graphics). OTOH, I had no keyboard and mouse. Interestingly, rebooting the system fixed the problem. I guess that the hal database was not populated for some reason, so this might not be a bug in X11. However, I would expect the server to abort without any input devices. Without network access, the thing that's left to a user without network access is to hit the reset button. Excerpt from the (attached) Xorg.0.log: (II) Cannot locate a core pointer device. (II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device. (II) The server relies on HAL to provide the list of input devices. If no devices become available, reconfigure HAL or disable AllowEmptyInput. I can retry the installation to provide more data if that is of interest. Thanks, Torsten
