Now I suspect the problem here is because udev and virtual/udev were |
2 |
built with keymap support turned off. That's the most terse way I can |
3 |
describe it. This may be because of the desktop profile. |
4 |
I'm no developer. I assume keymap support was turned off for a reason. |
5 |
Can anyone enlighten me about this? |

The long story is that I knew saying my alpha was "locked up" was not a |
8 |
proper description. I enabled login via a serial port. Indeed, linux |
9 |
was working. So, now I can kill X more gracefully. |
10 |
After running emerge -tav to reinstall xorg-servers, it told me that |
11 |
virtual/udev without keymap may cause input device autoconfiguration to |
12 |
fail. |
13 |
So, the -keymap flag is definitely set for udev and virtual/udev on my |
14 |
system. I checked. |
15 |
My plan is to wait a bit in case someone offers advice. Failing that, |
16 |
I'll try rebuilding udev and virtual/udev without turning off keymap. |
17 |
If/when that doesn't work, I'll investigate manual configuration of the |
18 |
xorg input devices. |
