Hello,
finally I found time to upgrade to xorg-x11 7.0.0 rc4. This time,
migration went fine.
Now could try the intructions of
http://rootprompt.org/article.php3?article=9446
. Basically, it works out of the box.
However, the evdev lacks Xkb support. Therefore, you are limited to the
english keyboard layout. For my setup, I require two different layouts my
own customized dvorak and a german layout for the second seat). As the
implementaiton of the evdev driver is straight forward, I modified the
driver to reflect my layouts.
The second downside of this migration occurs when using more than one
monitor/screen/... per seat. I wanted to use 4 for the 1st seat and 1 for
the second. Everything starts fine and works good. -- At least until any
of those displays of seat one are used that are :0.0 (i.e.: :0.1, :0.2,
:0.3). If I move the cursor to any such display, the 1st seat hangs. If I
use the second seat to start an xterm on such a display, the 1st seat
hangs.
The synopsis:
If you use one display per seat, everything works out of the box. If you
do not want to mess with the evdev driver, you are bound to an english
keyboard layout.
Kind regards,
Christian
