 |
|
so i instaled x-server and xorg drivers but it seems i had screwed something up becouse my xfce4 start without any input device and xorg log says that i have no driver specified for the input devices
so can you direct me please where shall i look?
oh seems i accidently deleted file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf.
how do i restore it back? |

emerge -av1 evdev
Make sure that you have INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" set in your make config so it gets pulled automatically.
EDIT: VoidMage is correct. It should be emerge -1 xf86-input-evdev not emerge -1 evdev. I should stop posting package names from memory.

 that's 'emerge -1 xf86-input-evdev' - INPUT_DEVICES work via x11-base/xorg-drivers meta. |

That is odd.
I don't know if it will work, but here is my file if you want to try it:
| Code: | #
# Catch-all evdev loader for udev-based systems
# We don't simply match on any device since that also adds accelerometers
# and other devices that we don't really want to use. The list below
# matches everything but joysticks.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev pointer catchall"
MatchIsPointer "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev touchpad catchall"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev tablet catchall"
MatchIsTablet "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev touchscreen catchall"
MatchIsTouchscreen "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection |
