In Xorg.0.log i see: (II) config/hal: Adding input device USB Receiver (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (II) config/hal: Adding input device AT Keyboard (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8) (The at part makes sense, i only have USB on this machine) So i guess this is the problem and that a rebuild of gnome/X11 did not help. It seems fairly close to the issues with hald/xorg.conf that we saw the last time upgrading gnome. What is actually the right config nowdays? I have the following in xorg.conf: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Simple Layout" Screen "Screen 1" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" EndSection And in /etc/rc.conf: bus_enable="YES" hald_enable="YES" Or does anyone have any hints on why a keyboard (that i'm currently writing on...) don't work in X11/Gnome? Any hints on debugging this? /Chris On Thu, 14 May 2009, Christopher Arnold wrote: > > Hi, > > i'm currently debugging why my keyboard is not working in gnome, so i thought > i might throw out a quick question here if someone else have run into this? > > Details: > Im running 7.1-STABLE. > > It's a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse (connected with USB) that have > been woriking for a couple of years.
