And what about your x11-input.fdi? I guess you don't have one! Take a |
32 |
look here [1] for a documented example. |
33 |
If you want xorg-server and hal working you need: |
34 |
|
35 |
xorg-server built with hal use flag and evdev as input-device. |
36 |
comment out the input sections in xorg.conf. |
37 |
a fdi file placed at /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-x11-input.fdi (basically |
38 |
the configuration done in xorg.conf prior is now done in this file) |
