I upgraded my extremely not-up-to-date server last night (523 packages upgraded). The upgrade generally went well, except for one significant issue: the keyboard is no longer working under Xorg. It works fine in a command line tty though (i.e., ctrl-alt-F1).
Not sure what the problem is, as it was working before the upgrade, and I'm fairly certain I've got all the relevant bits installed and loaded, such as:
* evdev module loaded * dbus daemon running * hal daemon running * xf86-input-evdev package installed etc.
Perhaps related: I saw the following odd sequence of messages in the Xorg.0.log:
(II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (**) Power Button: always reports core events (**) Power Button: Device: "/dev/input/event2" (II) Power Button: Found keys (II) Power Button: Configuring as keyboard (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Power Button" (type: KEYBOARD) (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_model" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_layout" "us" (II) config/hal: Adding input device Power Button (**) Power Button: always reports core events (**) Power Button: Device: "/dev/input/event3" (II) Power Button: Found keys (II) Power Button: Configuring as keyboard (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Power Button" (type: KEYBOARD) (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_model" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_layout" "us"
Certainly sounds like that could be the cause, but I have no idea why that's happening or how to fix.
Anyone have any ideas?
Can you attach full Xorg log and config ? And does it work with xf86-input-keyboard driver ?
