All is well now. It would be nice to summarize the reason of the problem and the currently working solution for further reference in the mailing list (instead of just referencing external sources that might disappear). ;-) X.org as of February 2020 now requires UDEV (as known from Linux) to discover input devices, this is the default now; FreeBSD's devd can still be selected when building from source. =3D=3D=3D=3D> Backend to use for input device configuration: you can only select none or one of them DEVD=3Doff: Use devd for autoconfiguration of input devices UDEV=3Don: Use udev via libudev-devd for autoconfiguration of input devices Involved parts to be updated or (re-)installed are xorg-server, libinput, xf86-input-libinput, and libudev-devd. =20 Further information can be found in xorg-server's pkg-message. Especially the new pitfalls for dealing with PS/2 keyboards and mice, or stuff that you might need as a partial configuration file into /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, or possible additions to /etc/sysctl.conf (values explained in /sys/dev/evdev/evdev.h), or yet another way to set your keyboard layout, and a few other Linuxisms are discussed in the forum thread mentioned above. Please correct and advise if I didn't understand it correctly! Vlad: As there seem to be more than one solution and suggestions, which one worked _for you_? It's always nice to see a _verified_ solution on the mailing list where a real person can confirm that a specific (!) set of actions solved the problem. :-) --=20 Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
