Guilmette >Release: FreeBSD 9.1-RC2 amd64 >Organization: entr0py >Environment: System: FreeBSD 9.1-RC2 amd64 System: FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE amd64 >Description: Upon running xinit the first time (after a reboot) X starts normally, and a mouse cursor appears on the screen (as normal) but then physically moving the mouse has no effect. Exiting X and then running xinit a second time ``cures'' the problem. This problem has been plaguing me since the early 8.x days, but I'm sorry to say that I never took the time to file a formal report until now, because there was always a trivial work-around (i.e. just exit X and run xinit again). This bug was never critical before, but I am now working towards trying to build a box that will boot directly into an X application (xbmc), so now this _is_ going to cause me serious problems. This problem may perhaps be related in some way to ports/167654: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=167654 Then again it may perhaps not be. What do I know? >How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD... pretty much any release from 8.0-RELEASE up to and through 9.1-RC2, then install x11/xorg, then run xtint and try moving your mouse and see all of the pretty non-movement. >Fix: I don't know, but I sure do with that somebody who actually knows something that X internals (which alas, I don't) could take a look at this. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
