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:
