Did you also disable "AllowEmptyInput"? Can we take a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log for that case? Have you tried to start X without any /usr/X11/xorg.conf file?

What is the output in /var/log/Xorg.0.log when you put these directives into /etc/X11/xorg.conf? Did you try to change the mouse configuration in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf for the "InputClass" "evdev pointer catchall"? In your Xorg.0.log it says: (**) PS2++ Logitech TrackMan: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall" > The manpage also doesn´t say anything about keyboards. > > And how does a configuration file under /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ > fit into the Debian policy that all configuration files reside under > /etc?

I think, when things get settled there will be a directory /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d containing these config files. -- Best regards, Jörg-Volker. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
