Bug#579669: Synaptics keeps Xorg from starting.

2010-05-19 Thread Tim Hanson
Hi,

I recently dist-upgraded, and Xorg stopped working; to the best of my
knowledge, it appears to be the synaptics driver which is causing the
problem.  I am running Debian Sid on a Asus EEEpc 904, and xorg
without a xorg.conf.  I don't care about touch to tap or any of these
fiddly details - can use a USB mouse - just need X to start.

Strangely, it seems to be loading the synaptics driver twice - once
for /dev/input/event8 and once for /dev/input/mouse0 ; the latter
fails.

My /var/log/Xorg.0.log follows:

That's expected, and unrelated to X not starting for you.

Julien,

Ah, forgive me.  Was confused because synaptics was the last/only (EE)
I see in the log file.

Any ideas for cause?  I'm at a loss...  I guess I'll just reinstall.

thanks,
Tim

Looks like a session issue rather than an X issue.  Look in
.xsession-errors I guess.
