The kernel in question:
Code:
aleeex ~ # uname -a
Linux aleeex 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 #3 SMP Thu Feb 18 20:04:50 CST 2010 i686 Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
The problem:
Code:
aleeex ~ # lsmod | fgrep input
uinput                  6620  0
aleeex ~ # ls -l /dev/ui*
ls: cannot access /dev/ui*: No such file or directory
aleeex ~ # dmesg | fgrep input
[    0.252306] input: Macintosh mouse button emulation as /devices/virtual/input/input0
[    0.310387] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input1
[    3.435870] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input2
[    3.436120] input: Lid Switch as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0D:00/input/input3
[    3.479246] input: Sleep Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0E:00/input/input4
[    3.479536] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0C:00/input/input5
[    3.963858] input: Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:1f/input/input6
[    4.444516] input: ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7
[    6.687855] input: Asus EeePC extra buttons as /devices/virtual/input/input8


Any ideas why I don't have uinput devices? They worked with 2.6.30-gentoo-r6.

Thanks,
- Alex

Didn't see this yesterday:
Code:
crw-r----- 1 root root 10, 223 Feb 20 14:33 uinput


And now wminput seems to be working. I have no idea what changed in the mean time, as I don't think I added/removed any modules, and haven't rebooted since then. (Uptime is near 3 days, not including sleep time while at work.)
