If I put it, I begin to have some function if ServerFlags AutoAddDevices and AutoEnableDevices: [ 2961.464] (II) config/devd: Adding input device Keyboard (/dev/atkbd0) [ 2961.464] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device. [ 2961.464] (II) This device may have been added with another device file. [ 2961.464] (II) config/devd: Adding input device Mouse (/dev/psm0) [ 2961.464] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device. [ 2961.464] (II) This device may have been added with another device file. This is were InputClass section should came in handy, I suppose, but I'm not sure this is the keyboard xserver should be using (reports unavailable when I try to set a driver) and I remember fighting against HAL to use /dev/sysmouse (moused is enabled) in favor of /dev/psm0 for the mouse device. Also, despite even adding init/fini function to config/config.c, xserver still don't acknowledge I am using a hotpplugin backend : [ 4066.978] (WW) Hotplugging requested but the server was compiled without a config backend. No input devices were configured, the server will start without any input devices. I'll try to poke around later, but I may not have time for this for a few days. -- Matthieu Volat <mazhe@alkumuna.eu> [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.21 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlI6DyAACgkQ+ENDeYKZi35NTgCfa3N0rktwgyLqGtkgq3JWQiEy uJUAn1rXuMVw1zbVDRb0c2mX22z25Oiu =hfvf -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
