And there are some things that might need looking at.
a) the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill X11 does not work anywhere/anyhow for me and Jaroslaw Zachwieja. While the issue is minor, I was somewhat disappointed on the response by Stefan Dirsch (repeatedly closing as WORKSFORME without documenting how to get it working). https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=576481
Meanwhile I've seen this as well. On my TODO list finally.
d) with MS3 on my netbook, X11 keyboard layout was always US and could not be changed with yast2 keyboard or yast2 language or KDE-controlcenter. only xorg.conf with AutoAddDevices off helped.
Keyboard setting should be fixed after the pending SR's from X11:Xorg to openSUSE:Factory have been accepted. With the switch from HAL/dbus to udev it should be enough for yast2 keyboard module to run /etc/X11/xdm/keytable for the static keyboard X11 configuration. No need to restart a daemon like HAL afterwards.
e) in that course of action I noticed that the (officially deprecated) SaX2 is no more working so creating a xorg.conf is now a lot more difficult.
Known issue (see Bug #586112). Feel free to provide a fix.
While I heard people saying that "SaX2 should no more be needed", there are still plenty cases for plenty people when a working xorg.conf is still needed. Installing a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.template could already help there.
I've written a small shell script (xlog2xconf) some time ago to create such a template from an existing XOrg.0.log, but with the new xorg-server 1.8 this no longer works either. :-( Best regards, Stefan Public Key available ------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Dirsch (Res. & Dev.)
