 |
|
After following the directions at [url]en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/HAL[/url] my mouse and keyboard no longer work with xorg. I've been looking around trying to find out what to do to my xorg.conf or how to setup the input devices with hal, but I cannot find how. How do I get my mouse and keyboard to work in xorg with hal enabled?
My xorg.conf looks like this: (I already tried with input device sections)
| Code: | Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
# InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
# InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "Files"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/OTF"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/"
EndSection
Section "Module"
# Load "dri"
Load "record"
Load "xtrap"
Load "extmod"
Load "dbe"
Load "glx"
EndSection
# Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier "Keyboard0"
# Driver "kbd"
# Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
# Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
# Option "XkbModel" "pc101"
# Option "XkbLayout" "us"
# EndSection
# Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier "Mouse1"
# Driver "mouse"
# Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
# Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
# Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
# EndSection

Hmm, I never needed to reconfigure HAL. What is the output of rc-status
and | Code: | | grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log; tail -n20 /var/log/Xorg.0.log |

Ahh it's a hassle without copy and past so I'll shorten the outputs.
rc-status:
| Code: | runlevel: default
hald [started]
... |
grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log; tail -n20 /var/log/Xorg.0.log gives a ton of module evdev not found.
grep EVDEV /usr/src/linux/.config says
| Code: | | COFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y |
Should I:
| Code: | | emerge xf86-input-evdev |
|

You can emerge gpm and start it then you could copy/paste in links.

No because it's not compiled as a module.
But you need xf86-input-evdev. It should have been pulled in as a dependency if you have this in your make.conf | Code: | | INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" |

| Yes! I think I added evdev after emerging hal I didn't know it would trigger more dependencies. An emerge --deep --newuse -world fixed it all. Thanks! |
