Hi,

I've upgrade two FreeBSD 7-stable workstations to the latest kernel/
world of today, and now the mouse and keyboard don't react anymore in
the Xorg / KDE login window. Mouse doesn't move, keyboard characters
don't appear in the login prompt. I can still switch back with ctl-alt-
F1 to a console login, and there both the keyboard and mouse still work.

I have attached dmesg.boot and Xorg.0.log. I'm not using a xorg.conf
as the default settings used to work fine.

Any ideas?


Sure.  In your Xorg.0.log file:

"(==) ModulePath set to "/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules"
(II) Cannot locate a core pointer device.
(II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device.
(II) The server relies on HAL to provide the list of input devices.
        If no devices become available, reconfigure HAL or disable 
AllowEmptyInput"

add dbus_enable="YES" and hald_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf. Then start them both manually (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald start and /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus start). Then restart X (Ctrl-Alt-Bkspc)
