The strange thing is, the server doesn't even *try* to load mouse and keyboard. Which is weird, because I thought the newer Xserver autoload everything necessary...
This still holds. This is strange.
X.Org X Server 1.5.99.1 Did I miss something there? master is at 1.4.99 something. master is tracking 1.6 (1.5.99.x) development, the server-1.5-branch is tracking 1.4.99.x development.
Upstream must be kidding. 1.5 isn't even out, and now there's 1.5.99 tracked?!?
Should we be pulling from that, instead?
Shouldn't matter, actually.
Release Date: 5 September 2007 This doesn't look a recent Xserver. Did you get the right sources? Maybe a wrong branch? That's what it says in the message on mine too, though I am guessing that the "release date" is only updated for the formal releases.
Possibly.
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" screen "Default Screen"
Missing
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Configured Mouse" "CorePointer"
here for older Xservers that don't autoload these.
Please try that. Even though I don't understand why keyboard + mouse
drivers aren't autoloaded.
