Mine are slightly different. I also have /usr/lib/lbltdl.so.0 -> libltdl.so.0.1.2 and also have libltdl.so.0.1.2 libltdl.so.3 libltdl.so.3.1.0 > If you also have these files then just delete the so.3 version.

I have had mouse, keyboard and synaptics along with evdev in my INPUT_DEVICES and have emerged relative drivers. I am now going to remove them and see what gives. I am not clear which /etc/hal/fdi/policy/* files I should have in there ... any ideas? > I'll bet xdm is hiding the really helpful error messages, so I would > shut off xdm and use startx to see if you get any better information. Thanks, will try that too. -- Regards, Mick
