As I understand it the standard startx script runs xinit internally. This method of starting the X server fails. > > xinit vs startx doesn't change anything regarding input devices. What > changes is that .xinitrc or .xsession is run. What do you run there? I run them manually by doing X& DISPALY=:0 /etc/X11/Xsession xmonad so there is no problem with that. I thought disabling automatic adding of devices would resolve the problem but the events are still generated and the X server dies. I see a few problems here: 1) The hal stuff works when X is started from startx (xinit) but no hal events are generated when only the X wrapper is started separately. 2) The wacom driver crashes the X server on unloading which is probably a bug in that driver 3) it is not possible to prevent the hal events from being generated Thanks Michal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
