We have been doing additional work on hald trying to address some remaining issues, but there is still an issue if you are using a statically configured sysmouse and hald. The issue is (with our current work, not sure if marcus has committed yet) that when the system starts up and moused runs, X has not yet started and so we mark sysmouse as a valid X input device. When X starts, it is enabling it's statically configured devices, then getting the list of available devices from hald. Since we already marked it as a valid device because X wasn't using it at the time, X tries to open sysmouse again. For hardware ports, this isn't an issue since the second open just fails and you keep rolling. For sysmouse, it happily allows the port to be opened again. So, the short story is: Either set AllowEmptyInput on and let hald add your devices or statically configure your devices and set "AutoAddDevices" "off" robert. =20 > > robert. >=20 --=-430B+EVP4HKT4bdddnMO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAkl9+mQACgkQM4TrQ4qfROOY+QCeMNITHbQL3lDUnP2eSS7nGd5v VwQAnRcVg+ooYRuGVwTYcjEjDfcEomQH =Mgrs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-430B+EVP4HKT4bdddnMO--
