Bug#560815: xserver-xorg-input-evdev: automatic discovery of input devices broken

2009-12-12 Thread Micha Feigin
Package: xserver-xorg-input-evdev
Version: 1:2.3.1-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


the xserver stopped automatically detecting input devices. On my laptop for 
some reason touchpad still works but keyboard, external keyboard and external 
mice don't work. This makes X unusable.

setting
Option  AllowEmptyInput   false

Allows defining these manually which allows bypassing the problem for now but 
this shouldn't be needed with new X

There are several reasons for this:
* latest xserver-xorg-core experimental packages are not built for amd64 yet
* evdev needs
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-input-evdev.git;a=commitdiff;h=3eddc02011d7805d8f959b6ca626df33d1f6a90b;hp=7656675298b512645a06a34a7994dfbde9796ae4

Once we upload all Xorg 7.5 packages to unstable, it should work fine.
