Hi, after moving .xinitrc to .xinitrc.bak I could start X with no problems, and it doesn't crash :) I had this line in it: exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xset r rate 250 50 The 'exec' there is wrong, it causes the shell that parses the .xinitrc to replace itself with the 'xset' command, which in turn exits when it has set up the rate. So the whole .xinitrc script is now done, causing what your were seeing. It worked with a previous computer, didn't think it would cause problems. Are you sure it was exactly the same line ? without the 'exec' it would have been fine, but with the 'exec' there's no way it would work, except it you had it *after* another 'exec' command, for instance 'exec fvwm'. 'fvwm' doesn't exit until you select 'exit' from its menu. So 'exec'ing the window manager in .xinitrc is correct, but since 'exec' replaces the shell with the program it executes, the lines after an 'exec' in any shell script are ignored.

You see, I got this file where I store all configuration changes I do in Open. But I separate base configuration and port/package configuration. So I had this: ~/.xinitrc exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xset r rate 250 50 ~/.xinitrc exec /usr/local/bin/ion3 Didn't add the second statement with at the end of the first :P That's why it worked in my previous system. Now I've done that, and works just fine :) Thanks!

Shouldn't it affect only the keyboard? Anyway, thank so much, I've tried so different things, and couldn't solve it :P Again, thanks!
