Hey there, friends.

This is my 3rd Gentoo install, so I'm not a total noob, but still I'm not sure what to do about this problem.

Whenever I start X, I have to unplug and replug my trackball and keyboard for them to work. I'm sure this has something to do with libinput and eudev as I was fiddling with both of them trying to get input to work at all. I'm not sure what went wrong as the two other times I installed Gentoo on this same PC there was no issue like this at all. I'm not sure what troubleshooting info would be useful but my make.conf is as follows:

Code:
NOLDADD=1
#COMMON_FLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=native"
CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -flto=thin"
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -flto=thin"
# -O2 in LDFLAGS refers to binary size optimization during linking, it is NOT related to the -O levels of the compiler         
LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -Wl,-O2 -Wl,--as-needed"

CC="clang"
CXX="clang++"
AR="llvm-ar"
NM="llvm-nm"
RANLIB="llvm-ranlib"

_HARDENING_FLAGS="-fPIC -fstack-protector-strong -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2"

MAKEOPTS="-j15 -l15"
PORTAGE_NICENESS=1
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--jobs=12 --load-average=12"
GRUB_PLATFORM="efi-64"
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64"
ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA"
INPUT_DEVICES="libinput"
VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu radeon radeonsi"
FEATURES="parallel-install"
#CPU_FLAGS_X86="aes avx avx2 f16c fma3 mmx mmxext pclmul popcnt rdrand sha sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 sse4_2 sse4a ssse3"

#CURL_SSL="libressl"


and as expected, the output of portageq envvar INPUT_DEVICES is "libinput"

Sorry if this is a frequent issue, I couldn't seem to find the proper search terms to locate a solution.[/code]
