Bug#364932: Workaround Re: xorg: My keyboard no longer works after upgrading
Selon Denis Barbier [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Same problem here... my keyboard no longer works under X after upgrading my testing laptop. All keys (no numerical pad on a laptop) does a resolution switch (as Ctrl-Alt-+/- does), except Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. Do you have xkb-data installed? % dpkg -l |grep xkb-data ii xkb-data 0.8-5 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configuration data For be sure, I've purged and reinstalled him. No effect. send me this xkb.tar.bz2 file? http://aurelienlp.free.fr/tmp/xkb.tar.bz2 Thanks Thanks to you ;) -- A. Le Provost - Ribaltchenko.

The error message seems to tell that XF86_Switch_VT_1 is not defined in your XKeysymDB. I do not know how this can happen. If I had a similar problem, I would check that this file is identical to the one found in libx11-data, and run strace -f -e open startx 2 open.log to see where X looks for its files.

Same problem here... my keyboard no longer works under X after upgrading
my testing laptop. All keys (no numerical pad on a laptop) does a
resolution switch (as Ctrl-Alt-+/- does), except Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.

My config is standard :

Option XkbModel pc105
Option XkbLayout fr
EndSection

Nothing strange appear in Xorg logs, and on the standard error output
( [--- ---] announce my cuttings) :

I do the following symbolic links :

# ln -s /etc/X11/xkb /usr/lib/X11/xkb
# ln -s /usr/share/X11/XErrorDB /usr/lib/X11/XErrorDB
--
Nothing change. I also tried :
--
% export XKBPATH='/usr/share/X11/xkb'
% startx
--
But no effect.
--
As Noel Maddy say, I've modified /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/pc, but no
changes for me.
--
I purge all xorg 6.9 packages, except libice6 because there're many
packages which depend on it.

I try to pass to layout us, but the keyboard still don't work :

As Antoine Sirinelli, if I change my xorg.conf by putting a foo name
for XkbRules :
Option XkbRules foo or xfree
The keyboard works except the shift and alt keys (ctrl work). The Xorg
log is only :
--

MOUSE)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device Generic Keyboard (type:

(WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap
(II) Configured Mouse: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
--
And nothing special on standard error output.
--
Moreover the roller of mouse (USB) don't work for copy/paste :
- nothing of all with xterm ;
- with rxvt and firefox, in the same window it's good, but not from one
window to another.

I have another machine in testing uptodate, the upgrade cause no
problem... The only specificity which I see to the broken system, it's
that it was not reinstalled for a long time (beginnig with a stable
potato).

Same situation for me here, but interestingly it's only one user's
account that has this problem. Unfortunately, it's the one account that
I really need to use X on.
I got it to work again by commenting out the -VMode/+VMode sections of
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/pc (as below). Of course, this disables
resolution changes, but I never use that anyway...
// -VMode switches to the previous video mode
// key KPSU {
// type=CTRL+ALT,
// symbols[Group1]= [ KP_Subtract, XF86_Prev_VMode ]
// };
key KP7 {[ KP_Home, KP_7] };
key KP8 {[ KP_Up, KP_8] };
key KP9 {[ KP_Prior,KP_9] };
// +VMode switches to the next video mode
// key KPAD {
// type=CTRL+ALT,
// symbols[Group1]= [ KP_Add, XF86_Next_VMode ]
// };

The more people you rule over, the less an individual matters.
