With a similar setup I've had no problems using |
| 8 |
evdev. The first step was to unlink xorg.conf. |

At that point everything Just Worked. |

If you want an xorg.conf then try using |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
X -configure; |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
as SU and see what it gives you -- after installing |
| 17 |
evdev. |

Q: Do you have any other USB devices on the system? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
There may be something else that is hogging the bus |
| 22 |
(e.g., flakey flash drive) and causing timeouts with |
| 23 |
the KB. Could also be a flakey USB port or keyboard |
| 24 |
hardware. In my experience, purely random flakeyness |
| 25 |
is more likely to be a hardware issue. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
In any case, I'm happily running with fvwm 2.6.3, |
| 28 |
INPUT_DEVICES="evdev", and no xorg.conf whatever. |
