As soon as the XDM loginscreen is there, or when X is running, the mouse and keyboard don't work. They do during boot. Don't know if the message is related with the malfunctioning of the keyboard and mouse. This is with kernel 2.3.21 pre-patch-2.3.22-2 Kernel 2.3.19 is fine (didn't test another) Mouse and keyboard are PS/2 No gpm (disabled) Debian Potato: XFree86 Version 3.3.5 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300) Release Date: August 23 1999 If I kill X via a remote login, keyboard works again (at console thus) I would be happy to supply more info if nescessary.
