--- Begin Message ---Package: hal-info Version: 20091130-1 My keyboard and mice devices aren't properly configured by HAL: they don't receive the info.category = 'input' key or the right info.capabilities (and persumably many other keys are missing as a consequence): vega david ~ $ hal-find-by-capability --capability 'input.keys' vega david ~ $ echo $? 1 vega david ~ $ lshal -u /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46d_c30e_noserial udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46d_c30e_noserial' info.linux.driver = 'usb' (string) info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5e3_608_noserial' (string) info.product = 'UltraX Keyboard (Y-BL49)' (string) info.subsystem = 'usb_device' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46d_c30e_noserial' (string) info.vendor = 'Logitech, Inc.'

(string) usb_device.vendor_id = 1133 (0x46d) (int) usb_device.version = 1.1 (1.1) (double) As a consequence, they don't receive the input.x11_driver = 'evdev' key, and Xorg doesn't see them, and the system is basically fscked up. I don't know what caused this, or how it started: it used to work at least insofar as Xorg seeing the devices (through evdev), and I don't know what might have changed. I upgraded hal-info from 20090716-1 to 20091130-1 and hal from 0.5.13-4 to 0.5.13-6 recently, so this may be the cause, but I'm not even sure (I can't find where the place where the info.category or info.capabilities keys get set). Any thoughts on how to debug this? How is HAL supposed to get the values of these keys? -- David A. Madore ( http://www.madore.org/~david/ )
