openSUSE 11.0:
Section "InputDevice" Driver "kbd" Identifier "Keyboard[0]" Option "Protocol" "Standard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbKeycodes" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc104" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection
openSUSE 11.1:
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard[1]" Driver "evdev" Option "Protocol" "Standard" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbModel" "microsoftnek4k" Option "XkbRules" "base" Option "Pass" "3" Option "evBits" "+1" Option "keyBits" "~1-255 ~352-511" EndSection
The long and short of it is this: if (in the current shipping version) evdev > is used, at all, for anything, X will try to use it for a bunch of stuff, including already-configured devices. For some reason this is very spotty and in general doesn't work very well at all. The version I'm using above works great, so far.
Hmm. So where is the issue? The above evdev configuration is what sax2 has created
I'd love to help get evdev used for openSUSE 11.2. I'm happy to finally have an xorg.conf that has *no* input specified, finally the beginnings of the auto-configuration dream for Linux and Xorg.
So do you have this already working or not? If yes, please let me know what you did exactly, i.e. how does your xorg.conf look like, what did you change in HAL configuration? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
