Re: Keyboard not working in gnome?
Hi again, some more input on this. In Xorg.0.log i see: (II) config/hal: Adding input device USB Receiver (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device AT Keyboard (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (The at part makes sense, i only have USB on this machine) So i guess this is the problem and that a rebuild of gnome/X11 did not help. It seems fairly close to the issues with hald/xorg.conf that we saw the last time upgrading gnome. What is actually the right config nowdays? I have the following in xorg.conf: Section ServerLayout Identifier Simple Layout Screen Screen 1 0 0 InputDeviceMouse1 CorePointer InputDeviceKeyboard1 CoreKeyboard Option AllowEmptyInput off Option AutoAddDevices off EndSection And in /etc/rc.conf: bus_enable=YES hald_enable=YES Or does anyone have any hints on why a keyboard (that i'm currently writing on...) don't work in X11/Gnome? Any hints on debugging this? /Chris On Thu, 14 May 2009, Christopher Arnold wrote: Hi, i'm currently debugging why my keyboard is not working in gnome, so i thought i might throw out a quick question here if someone else have run into this?

With AllowEmptyInput and AutoAddDevices set to off and both dbus and hald enabled it now works... Why? Well i tried and xterm as usual and it didn't work. Decided to check if another program accepted input to rule out an error in xterm. So i used preferences/keyboard instead. I didn't expect it to work so i just pressed a key and kept it down. Klick and then characters! So in the end i managed to find out that slow keys somehow had become enabled in universal access preferences Embarrasing... But it is a bit strange that your suggestions did not work. How come some people need the AllowEmptyInput and AutoAddDevices lines but not others? /Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

However it doesn't run on Linux ATM according to what I've read. Has anyone tried to install it using wine? I tried but it just hung after agreeing to the license.
