hmmm... doesn't look the same problem actually, but let me better understand: - does udev create the correct /dev/input/event nodes? - does the output of 'cat /proc/bus/input/devices' differs between your self-compiled kernel and debian's? (also which kernel spits the above one -I suppose the failing kernel- ?) - could you eventually send me the log of a 'startx -- -logverbose 8' session of a failing run? - and last but not least, could you send your full XF86Config-4 thanks -- mattia :wq!
