Re: No keyboard or mouse after X starts

2015-05-27 Thread Daniel Lintott
I have now solved this problem... After booting a Debian live DVD I
compared the xorg.log's and found an anomaly... The machine was still
using the old kernel, despite having done a clean install.. and
believing it had correctly installed the new version of grub (It
hadn't).

After running grub-install /dev/sda (and update-grub to be on the safe
side) it booted the newer version of grub.. showing the correct kernel
version.

No keyboard or mouse after X starts

2015-05-22 Thread Daniel Lintott

Hi,

NB: I'm not subscribed on the list so please CC me

II have just installed Jessie after using Wheezy for many months.

The install completes fine but when X/gdm3 starts neither the keyboard 
or mouse are functional.


If I boot into the recovery console, the keyboard works fine and both 
are present in lsusb.


I have also tried using Cinnamon and lightdm, but this had the exact 
same problem.


Any ideas?

Cheers,

Daniel

Thankyou Alex, I had found a similar post on askubuntu (after I sent the
mail).

Along with [1], I have added the command to the bottom of
/etc/gdm3/Init/Default

which seems to have resolved the issue!

Choosing/Rotating screen for greeter

2015-01-12 Thread Daniel Lintott
Hi,

I've recently switched to using one of my screens in vertical
orientation. This is fine from the desktop (after login), but currently
the greeter displays on the vertical screen but on it's side.

Is it possible to move the greeter to the other screen, which is
horizontal or rotate the greeter so it displays correctly?

Cheers

Daniel
