Well, the issue I had, was not related to gdm oder kdm or any display
manager but direcly to the X Server.

Actually it's a hardware bug with the PS/2 controller of some mainboards,
I think I refered to a gpm bug log, where the issue is discussed in length,
in this bug's log somewhere. In essence the hardware bug was triggered
by the X default configuration of two years ago.

I don't have access to the specific hardware, which showed the problem,
anymore. I don't know how widespread this buggy mainboards was/is.

Regards,
Harald

Brice,

I vaguely remember the problem.  I know I somehow fixed it, but I don't 
quite remember what it was.  The solution might of been related to the conf 
file for X.  Might as well go ahead and close it.

Hi,

About 2 years ago, you reported (or replied to) a bug in the Debian BTS
regarding unusable keyboard in gdm or kdm after sarge install, possibly
related to the mouse configuration. Did any of you guys reproduce this
problem recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next weeks.

Thanks,
Brice

Hi

why have you commented the Xkb lines in the keyboard definition ?

Section "InputDevice"
  Identifier  "Generic Keyboard"
  Driver"keyboard"
  Option"CoreKeyboard"
# Option"XkbRules"  "xfree86"
# Option"XkbModel"  "pc104"
# Option"XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection

it should be :


Section "InputDevice"
  Identifier  "Generic Keyboard"
  Driver"keyboard"
  Option"CoreKeyboard"
 Option"XkbRules"   "xfree86"
 Option"XkbModel"   "pc104"
 Option"XkbLayout"  "us"
EndSection

I asked why because the installer is not able to comment those
lines, it would have changed their values at most. Did anybody
else used your box ?

Cheers
Alban

Bug#295042: /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86: cannot use keyboard in gdm or kdm after fresh install of sarge

2005-02-12 Thread Braden Temme
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Severity: critical
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86
Justification: breaks the whole system


This is a fresh install of sarge.  My keyboard works fine until either
GDM or KDM (I've tried both) start.  After that the keyboard is
useless.
