Newer Xorg uses a different method of configuring hardware. There are |
| 8 |
many threads and many possible ways of addressing the problem: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
1) emerge "xf86-input-evdev" and set up input devices using the new |
| 11 |
configuration method (out of xorg.conf, into FDI files) -- this also |
| 12 |
requires a certain kernel option to be enabled. |
| 13 |
2) Add this option to ServerLayout section of xorg.conf: Option |
| 14 |
"AllowEmptyInput" "false" |
| 15 |
3) rebuild xorg-server with hal USE flag disabled |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Any one of those 3 should fix the problem. The first one is the "new" |
| 18 |
way, the others will leave you using legacy configuration methods. Use |
| 19 |
whatever works best for you. :) |

There are other possible things you may need to do depending on your |
| 22 |
particular setup. Fancy mice or non-English keyboards especially will |
| 23 |
need additional effort to configure the same as before. Read the |
