Did you try if it works directly after running each of the commands or did y= ou restart x11? These settings change the running x11 session and take imme= diate effect, restating x11 will start with your defaults and is not require= d for this test. If this doesn=E2=80=99t help, I would suggest to start without any specific x= org.conf file(a) (just move it out of the way) and see if the defaults (in c= ombination with one of setxkbmap commands) does the trick. Sharing you xorg log won=E2=80=99t hurt either. -m > No difference, sorry, but my arrow keys > still are not functioning. >=20 > BTW, those suggestions about do not explain why this same keyboard > works just find on a different, slightly older system (13.2 vs 14.0) > where my arrow keys work just fine (plus the ports tree on both > systems have been updated to the same -- up-to-date -- level). >=20 > I tried these things before sending my email asking for help: >=20 > 1) I removed the 'Driver "libinput"' line, keyboard failed to work >=20 > 2) I replaced "Keyboard0" with "KeyboardDefaults", ditto >=20 > 3) I replaced the 'Driver "libinput"' with 'Driver "kbd"', ditto >=20 > Any other ideas? >=20 > --=20 > William Bulley > E-MAIL: web@umich.edu > <web@umich.edu>
