Hi (again) everybody. I am (again) in need of some assistance. I have been trying to boot a new kernel (I’ve tried both a 2.4 and a 2.6) off CD while pointing it at my installed (by potato-2.2.17) root filesystem (on a G4). It boots up OK, with two (fairly problematical) exceptions. One, it is unable to startx successfully (although it tries) and two, it is entirely mismapping the keyboard (which gets a little tricky). This despite the fact that the boot messages show it seeing the correct (I believe) keyboard (Apple extended). Also, when I run startx manually, it gives the message: “fatal server error: cannot open mouse (no such device): although the boot messages show the right mouse. I’m not sure if this is enough information, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this one?
Thanks, Mike P.S: I have found some similar references on the archives for this, but no clear answer. If there is an answer there and someone could point me at it, that would be great.
