Hi guys
I just installed XFree86 4.0.3-7, and noticed that a XF86Config-4
file was not created in /etc/X11/ after installation and
configuration. I had to run dexconf for the file to be created.
This was on a system which didn't have xfree86 istalled before,
and I installed it through the task-x-window-system package.
Another thing I noticed was that the XF86Config-4 file contained
two InputDevice section: one called "Configured Mouse" and one
called "Generic Mouse". The "Configured mouse" one had the correct
values that I chose during install while the other one had options
that works for a USB mouse. Because of this error it tries to find
/dev/input/mice on X startup, and when that fails it puts me back
on the console. I'm surprised noone else has ran into this problem.
I have attached the XF86Config file as it looked after the
installation, and after running dexconf. Also note the formatting
error in the second InputDevice section.
Let me know if I should provide more info.
