[arch-dev-public] Problem with X?
I've got this weird problem that I think is caused by X. I've been following testing for a while now (so I have gnome, db, and heimdal). Every so often, and apparently randomly, X will stop taking any input except for mouse movement. But the mouse movement doesn't even trigger the focus follows mouse. The panel will still update and so will windows, but my input just totally doesn't work. The only thing that I can do to fix it seems to be sshing in and killing X. I run xfce4 so it might be the gnome/gtk updates that aren't working well with it... Has anyone heard anything about problems with X or is it just me? Jason

Hi the new X confused my mouse, after removing non existing devices from xorg.conf it worked again as it should. only thing i discovered now is that the lights on my keyboard are not working. it's still functionall though. that are my experiences with the last round of xorg update. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org
i experienced this lock described by Jason once. it happened while X was idle for some minutes (and the screen was send to standby), but i didn't track it further. disabling power management for screen i wasn't able to reproduce it any more. probably the new XINPUT architecture is not yet working fine with the dpms off/standby commands?

http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/8182 That looks like the same problem.

I think the big difference is that I don't use nvidia, I have an i945GM (intel). Jason

But if I don't miss anything, all users who are reporting such error are using xfce. -- http://www.archlinux.de

I have the same card, it works great on x86_64 with kde and beryl.

For the record, I haven't had a problem, but we all know that I'm not a typical X user.... so don't count me 8)

Not just you, i've been experiencing them too. As has someone else on the forums. http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=37987 I can't work it out. I had it badly yesterday, repeatedly, and today it's only happened once. Nothing in Xorg log. Yesterday was full xfce4, today was pekwm+xfce-mcs-manager+xfce-panel+xfdesktop. Now i'm just running pekwm to see if it was xfce4 causing it... It's not firefox, I use opera. Jacek in the thread above was also running xfce4, so it's possible it could be that. But... it's difficult to track down, it could be an X issue. It's not an nvidia issue, as i'm running on intel integrated, 855GM (i810 driver). [testing] repo here too. James
