The same problem occurs with systems that have Open Firmware; it seems that Xorg will enable then disable the devices.

(WW) Disabling Mouse0 (WW) Disabling Keyboard0 I was wondering if Xorg -configure should issue a warning about that after it writes the configuration file. Yesterday, I ran it on my new video card and had to force a reboot. I suppose it happened because I don't have the evdev driver installed or HAL enabled in xorg-server 1.9.0. In my old xorg.conf, I had the following in "ServerFlags": Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false" Anyway, just a suggestion. I don't know if it's something on my end, but maybe Xorg -configure could be improved somewhat, based on HAL and/or evdev presence. _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: [email protected]
