After digging a bit deeper in the issue the most revealing symptom is this error in /var/log/Xorg.0.log... [ 585.774] (II) Using input driver 'kbd' for 'Keyboard0' [ 585.774] (**) Option "CoreKeyboard" [ 585.774] (**) Keyboard0: always reports core events [ 585.774] (**) Keyboard0: always reports core events [ 585.774] (**) Option "Protocol" "standard" [ 585.774] (**) Option "Device" "/dev/kbdmux0" [ 585.774] (EE) Keyboard0: cannot open "/dev/kbdmux0" [ 585.774] (EE) PreInit returned 8 for "Keyboard0" [ 585.774] (II) UnloadModule: "kbd" That "PreInit" is apparently kbdPreInit() and the returned code 8 stands for BadMatch. What should I make of this? --jau On 2014-06-15 17:32, Jukka Ukkonen wrote: > > Hello everybody, > > I recently had a very peculiar experience with Xorg 7.7 on an amd64 > system running FreeBSD 10-stable. > Suddenly any and all X11 applications lost the keyboard.
