Package: xinput
Version: 1.3.0-1
Severity: normal
After upgrading xserver-xorg to 7.3 xinput stopped responding to
most of commands, example:
with xorg 7.2:
$ xinput set-pointer Touchpad
$ xinput set-pointer Trackpoint
(and the behaviour is proper)
with xorg 7.3:
$ xinput set-pointer Trackpoint
X Error of failed request: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device
Major opcode of failed request: 145 (XInputExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 12 (X_ChangePointerDevice)
Serial number of failed request: 12
Current serial number in output stream: 12
$ xinput set-pointer Touchpad
X Error of failed request: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device
Major opcode of failed request: 145 (XInputExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 12 (X_ChangePointerDevice)
Serial number of failed request: 12
Current serial number in output stream: 12
I'm not sure if set-pointer is the only command not working with
xserver-xorg 7.3

With xserver 1.4, the core keyboard and pointer are 'virtual' devices,
and can't be changed, so the server always returns BadDevice to the
ChangePointerDevice and ChangeKeyboardDevice requests. This is not a
bug in xinput.
