What are the recommended settings for mouse and keyboard with the new
xorg?
The best I've found is:
rc.conf: moused_enable="NO"
xorg.conf: Option "AllowEmptyInput" "On"
keyboard and mouse InputDevice sections removed
The downsides:
xdm run from /etc/ttys doesn't see mouse or keyboard until X is killed
and restarted.
moused="NO" makes for a 5 to 30-second pause on switching from console
to X. It's run by X (or hal) in the background anyway, so there's still
a mouse pointer on the console. I've mentioned this before:
