Re: Keyboard doesn't work in GDM

2011-04-26 Thread Richard Shaw
Well downgrading GDM didn't help. One interesting note. I was looking
through the log files and noticed that /var/log/gdm had the sticky bit
set "T" on other. After downgrading the permissions went back to what
I expected. Upgraded again and the perms still look right. Not sure
what happened there.

Still can't log in graphically though. I've got no clue where to look now.

Almost nothing: you don't have service mouse on the console. In graphic
mode, mouse control  is managed by X11 (or whatever it is called now)

Yes it's USB, but no, I've tried plugging it in almost every port. I
too figured it was a USB issue at first.

Same result: Nothing in GDM, fine in everything else.

Thanks,

I'll have to try that, but if there's no gdm service and I telinit 5,
what exactly happens?

I just tried it, no output, but I had already checked the usual suspects.

Thanks,

Out of interest, is it USB? If so, does unplugging it and replugging it
help?

Stop gdm service and see what happens

Have a look in dmesg, in /var/log/messages (grep -i gdm)

Keyboard doesn't work in GDM

2011-04-23 Thread Richard Shaw
Anyone else ever seen this?

My computer got restarted (presumable by my 3 y.o. daughter) and now
all of a sudden my keyboard doesn't work in GDM.

Works fine in the BIOS, plymouth, it will even wake up the monitor
when it goes to sleep, but when GDM comes up I can't do anything. Not
even numlock.

For the time being I have been booting up to run level 3, logging in,
and starting x manually. Everything works that way.

I didn't see anything suspicious updates in the yum log so I'm at a loss.

Thanks,
Richard
