The bug only manifests itself on a particular upgrade path, described in the bug thread messages (which I believe have all the needed reproduction information). If you set up a fresh system, it definitely doesn't happen. It could very well be that upgrading from an oldstable system+XFree86 to the today's stable or testing could still trigger it, but as I said I don't have the hardware to reproduce it. Note that it relies on a not-very-sane decision in (not fully) updating a manually touched kdmrc as I elaborated on the bug thread in my Feb 4 message. If you ask me, this downgrades the importance of the bug considerably, but, as you see in the reply from Michel Daenzer the same day, it's still an X bug. My guess would be that the bug is still there, but one has to retest the fishy upgrade path to see. HTH, Vassilii -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Vassilii, do you mean that the problem doesn't happen with the Xorg X server? If so, I think this bug can be closed. In any case, it's always better to explicitly say when you start X which vt you want it to use. Cheers, Julien -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Hi Brice, I am sorry, all the Debian systems around here at the university that I have access to have already been upgraded to the up-to-date xorg/etch, so I don't have an opportunity to retest it. However, if you have a spare Sarge machine, and install KDM there, just do a sarge->etch upgrade on it while (mistakenly) not allowing the ServerVTs=... line to be merged into the resulting kdmrc (as per the history of the bug). If, after that, the bug doesn't manifest itself (check across 1 reboot as well), then you probably should report the fact on the bug thread and happily close it. (The bug is pretty deterministic).

The bug is pretty esoteric as it requires particular problem in the course of the kdmrc etc files updates merge on the part of user, and only across some specific version numbers leap. Nevertheless, I don't believe someone actually committed a patch to have it fixed. V -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Vassilii, About 2 years ago, you reported a bug to the Debian BTS regarding keyboard not working in X under KDM, apparently related with gett on VC2. Did you reproduce this problem recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next weeks. Thanks, Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
