There's no such directory. I'm using udev 167-3 and the kernel was linux-image-2.6.38-2-amd64 2.6.38-4 for the latest problems. Now I'm using linux-image-2.6.38-2-amd64 2.6.38-5. I did a single reboot and the problem didn't appear. I don't know whether this is related, but apart from ordering differences, lsmod shows the following ones: when the bug appeared, I got evdev 17475 16 and no joydev module listed. Now (where the bug doesn't appear), I get evdev 17475 17 joydev 17138 0 Also: $ grep input: dmesg.bug622231 [ 0.775256] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0 [ 12.344552] input: Lid Switch as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0D:00/input/input1 [ 12.375643] input: Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A03:00/device:34/LNXVIDEO:00/input/input2 [ 12.461978] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0C:00/input/input3 [ 12.465763] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input4 [ 12.496061] input: Sleep Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0E:00/input/input5 [ 13.086385] input: Dell WMI hotkeys as /devices/virtual/input/input6 [ 13.495066] input: Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_0.3M as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.7/usb1/1-6/1-6:1.0/input/input7 [ 14.668988] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input8 [ 14.685139] input: HDA Intel Mic at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input9 [ 14.685215] input: HDA Intel Mic at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input10 [ 14.685279] input: HDA Intel Line Out at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input11 [ 14.685348] input: HDA Intel HP Out at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input12 [ 15.080771] input: PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input13 [ 26.272625] input: ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device as /devices/virtual/input/input14 $ dmesg | grep input: [ 0.763127] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0 [ 10.108978] input: Lid Switch as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0D:00/input/input1 [ 10.140084] input: Power Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0C:00/input/input2 [ 10.175719] input: Sleep Button as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0E:00/input/input3 [ 10.176434] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input4 [ 10.200964] input: Video Bus as /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A03:00/device:34/LNXVIDEO:00/input/input5 [ 10.735055] input: Dell WMI hotkeys as /devices/virtual/input/input6 [ 10.991351] input: DualPoint Stick as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7 [ 11.009085] input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input8 [ 11.910531] input: Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_0.3M as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.7/usb1/1-6/1-6:1.0/input/input9 [ 12.519513] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input10 [ 12.529221] input: HDA Intel Mic at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input11 [ 12.529327] input: HDA Intel Mic at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input12 [ 12.529431] input: HDA Intel Line Out at Sep Left Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input13 [ 12.529537] input: HDA Intel HP Out at Ext Right Jack as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input14 [ 24.305340] input: ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device as /devices/virtual/input/input15 So, the differences are: When the bug appeared: [ 15.080771] input: PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input13 When it doesn't appear: [ 10.991351] input: DualPoint Stick as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7 [ 11.009085] input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input8 Is there any other useful information I can give? -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
