[Bug 637178] New: xorg: keyboards not accepted
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637178 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=637178#c0 Summary: xorg: keyboards not accepted Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh@medozas.de QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer Blocker: --- I have here a device where Xorg has issues with keyboard(s). Both PS/2 and USB are affected; when plugging in an USB I get "(EE) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)". What does work — and that I don't understand — is the Windows key, which opens up the icewm (I chose that WM) menu. Any other key seems dead, even though `xmodmap -pke` does print reasonable assignments. Already copied /etc/X11 from a working system, but to no avail. Please advise on how to figure this one out. -- 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.

Do you know what the command line flag to Xorg server is to make these debug lines appear? -- 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.
