I have a Logitech Cordless Internet Pro keyboard and mouse, both connect to the same USB port. The interesting thing is that some keyboard events are transmitted via the mouse (it seems rather braindead to me, but that's the case). This is part of my /proc/bus/input/devices:
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c505 Version=0110 N: Name="Logitech USB Receiver" H: Handlers=kbd event0 I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c505 Version=0110 N: Name="Logitech USB Receiver" H: Handlers=kbd mouse0 event1 ^^^^^^^^^^ The change to hal (introducing x11-input.fdi, bug #446851) didn't just render some keys unmapped, it also rendered the middle and right mouse key non-functional. In fact, pressing either middle or right mouse key would kill X :-( I tried the configuration suggested for Logitech Cordless Desktop LX 501[1] (which also has a mouse that is part keyboard). That didn't solve the problem however. After commenting out the contents of /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi and restoring xorg.conf to its original contents I now have a properly working X again. I've attached my old Xorg.0.log for your viewing pleasure, I especially like the 96 button mouse :-) (II) Logitech USB Receiver: Configured 96 mouse buttons. /M [1]: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Advanced_Mouse/Individual_Configurations#Logitech_Cordless_Desktop_LX_501 -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus.therning@gmail.com http://therning.org/magnus Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils. -- Hector Louis Berlioz
