I'm trying to remove Gnome from another machine, but here starting Xorg

the following error:

(EE) Microsoft Natural® Ergonomic Keyboard 4000: failed to initialize for

While GDM works perfectly fine.
How can it make a difference?
And where should be the driver for that keyboard that I can't find
anywhere in aur?


This is the configuration (very simple) of the keyboard from Xorg:
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
    Option "XkbLayout" "it"
EndSection


Thanks,

Most MS keyboards spit out that error, it's generally harmless.

Well I thought that it was the reason why Xorg was not firing up.
Now I found that it's not, more simply awesome is not installed yet :D
