I am also pretty sure my hardware just does not work with hal and dbus.
What keyboard and mouse do you have? Also, which version of FreeBSD are
you using?
All these issues are with xorg 7.4_1. I have installed xorg-7.4_2 via pkg_add
on a clean system and xdm-1.1.8_2. Nothing else is installed.
Well, yes, but I was asking about the FreeBSD version: 7.2, 8.0, etc.
Mainly the difference is for USB devices.
[...xdm info saved for another message...]
I added one line to the xorg.conf file generated by Xorg -configure:
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
That prevents dbus/hal from being used by xorg, so it's not surprising
they don't work.
A diff shows this file to be exactly what I was using with xorg-7.4_1 (which
works albeit with a very slow startup). I have excerpted various [relevant]
outputs to show my hardware. I needed I can either attach or include the
entire files.
startx works but locks the keyboard.
I may have asked before, but does ctrl-alt-f1 still work? Even if the
rest of the keyboard is not responding, that can tell you if X is alive.
