Hi, I installed new system from scratch, board is AAEON APLC2 (UP squared), see https://www.aaeon.com/en/p/iot-gateway-maker-boards-up-squared for details. OS installation from USB flash, 12-ALPHA7 went basically flawlessly, eMMC is used as system disk. I did couple of system rebuilds from source, no problem with this. Then I proceeded with Xorg. I built everything from ports, using x11/xorg-minimal port. Intel video driver is used along with graphics/drm-next-kmod. Everything built well, X runs. Problem is, no response to keyboard presses. At this point, I am stuck. On another system with the same problem I am able to use 'workaround' of disabling kbdmux and using basically two keyboards, PS/2 for console and USB for X. It is not possible here, only USB keyboard is available. I tried to repeat it here and it works basically the same - I just have no working keyboard for console, and X needs to be started via ssh with command 'startx < /dev/ttyv0'. This is all with devd autoconfig backend, no explicit configuration files'. Without devd backend I did not manage to create any working setup. So here are two questions: 1. How are others doing in this situation? Computers with only USB keyboard must be quite common these days and there must be plenty of them working with X. 2. As a acceptable workaround for me would be graphical login screen, I tried installing x11/xdm, but it just dumps core. I have no idea yet, what's wrong here. Is there other way of auto starting X after boot? Regards, Milan
