I've now managed to get a display up. Many thanks to you and everyone else who offered advice. Unfortunately the mouse is still completely non-functional. I don't suppose you or anybody else have any ideas? Latest conf and log in usual place. > Also, doe the log really stop at: > > (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/mouse > Operation not permitted. > (EE) Mouse0: cannot open input device > (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Mouse0" Yup, before I tried your allowNonLocalModInDev and allowMouseOpenFail suggestions it would stop right at that point. > ...is it possible X is crashing/core'ing at this state?

I really wouldn't be suprised seeing as it left the monitor in a messed up state and a bunch of dot files in /tmp that prevented X from starting until you rm'd them. Once I get X fully functional I will attempt to look into it further. > Also 2: > > (--) Using wscons driver > _XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be > created. > _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: mkdir(/tmp/.X11-unix) failed, errno = > 2 > _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: failed to create listener for local > > Is /tmp mounted MFS or so?
