Am I supposed to have a "rules file" for evdev?
Unfortunately, the script you followed doesn't seem to tell you about handling the XKB data. You can either install xkeyboard-config or follow the instructions for "Making the keyboard work" here: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Development/git Or, as a quick and dirty method: ln -sn /usr/share/xkb /opt/gfx-test/share/X11/xkb ln -s /usr/bin/xkbcomp /opt/gfx-test/bin > --------- > PART 2: > > I installed system-config-display to generate a xorg.conf.

Maybe you want to try LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo. -- Dan _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
