There are no differences in the behaviour of the desktop and the laptop ( my wife's system ). After recompiling the kernel of the desktop ( it had not been renewed since the LFS7 installation ) it does not function anymore, exactly the same behaviour like the laptop 2.) In my own System I do not experience any problems. The difference to 1.) is that I have the old Xorg and my wife the new one with the evdef driver. So, it _could be_ that the problem concerns the new xorg 3.) We changed ~/xinitrc to xterm as you suggested and introduced xkb-defaults.conf. There are keyboard and mouse availaible on the console _before_ entering "startx". After startx, xterm shows up but no keyboard/mouse are functioning ( wired mouse/trackball ) After the startx command, the directory "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d" contains two new files, "10-evdev.conf" and "11-keyboard.conf" and the original "xkb-defaults.conf" is away. 4.) I reviewed the kernel's config of the failing laptop and it is exactly the same like the one of my working laptop. I could not see anything wrong. 5.) some final lines of Xorg.0.log: ------------------- 9428.142] (II) GLX: Initialized DRI2 GL provider for screen 0 [ 9428.143] (II) intel(0): Setting screen physical size to 270 x 203 [ 9428.793] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring) [ 9428.794] (II) config/udev: Adding input device TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint (/dev/input/mouse0) [ 9428.794] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring) ------------------ The driver "evdev" is not mentioned, neither in Xorg.0.log nor in dmesg.
