Chris, I didn't make note of the specific errors from the LLVM build. I know it 
was at different spots both times I tried with -j4. I can try rebuilding a few 
more times with -j4 and note the specific errors (if any) and report back if 
you would like.

As to the installing the evdev driver, I did install the package but the conf 
file did not get created for some reason. All I had to do was copy an existing 
conf file from a different installation to make it work. I see that I installed 
Evdev Driver-2.9.2 this time instead of 2.10.2. Did that just change over the 
weekend? I think I was working from the May 6 book. It was a local copy that I 
updated sometime on Saturday.  Maybe I'll build again with the latest and see 
if any of my issues repeat.

Thanks, Paul.
