Good evening everybody (CET),
I'm currently testing Peter Hutterers' XI. AFAIK you don't
need any device configuration via xorg.conf, instead you choose
evdev (e.g. at /etc/hal/fdi/policy/mydevices.fdi) - then HAL should
automagically add the devices (at least mouse & kbd) at startup.
My System:
ThinkPad x31
Ubuntu 8.10 (2.6.27-11)
GDM + Metacity
Ati Mobile
Here's the output of my (stable) 1.5.2 XServer:
f...@m0thership:~$ xinput -version
version 1.3.0
f...@m0thership:~$ xinput --list --short
"Virtual core keyboard" id=0 [XKeyboard]
"Virtual core pointer" id=1 [XPointer]
"Macintosh mouse button emulation" id=2 [XExtensionPointer]
"Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard" id=3 [XExtensionKeyboard]
"Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard" id=4 [XExtensionKeyboard]
"Razer Razer Copperhead Laser Mouse" id=5 [XExtensionKeyboard]
"Razer Razer Copperhead Laser Mouse" id=6 [XExtensionPointer]
Next step: Logout - switch to TTY1 - login as root and start "X" like that:
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my/path/to/the1.6.99.1/lib
startx -- /my/path/to/the1.6.99.1/bin/Xorg :1
---- starts fine ---
Output of my 1.6.99.1 XServer:
r...@mpx:~$ xinput --list --short
"Virtual core keyboard" id=0 [XKeyboard]
"Virtual core pointer" id=1 [XPointer]
"<default pointer>" id=2 [XExtensionPointer]
"<default keyboard>" id=3 [XExtensionKeyboard]
---------------------------
1. lshal and lsusb correctly lists the above devices.
2. restarting HAL doesn't help.
3. /my/path/to/the1.6.99.1/bin/xinput --create-master "f00" works, but
there's obviously no device to reattach it :/
Any suggestions?
cheers, Fl0rian
