Is this a new installation (i.e. did you have X working on this machine before |
| 19 |
the error appeared)? |

Either way, have you defined keyboard in your make.conf: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard ....." |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
and if you just updated your xorg before this error occurred, have you |
| 26 |
remerged your keyboard driver? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Run qlist -I -C x11-drivers/ to see which X drivers you need to remerge. |
