Any idea on what is causing > this ? I have no xorg.conf, so it's likely using evdev driver. inputInfo.keyboard is the hardcoded core pointer, and the key field is added through InitCoreDevices -> ActivateDevice -> CoreKeyboardProc -> InitKeyobardDeviceStruct.
There's no conditionals in that path, no configuration checks, nothing. The only possible error can be a missing xkeyboard-config setup problem in which case the server should FatalError out with an appropriate message. Please check again with gdb that at the end of InitCoreDevices inputInfo.keyboard->key is not NULL. There's one additional condition where it may be set NULL later, in DeepCopyKeyboardClasses. This would require you to have a quite interesting device (in which case I'd like to get the evtest output for it). If this is the case, try adding Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" to your ServerFlags and restart. The keyboard driver doesn't do the fancy tricks so it cannot trigger this condition. Cheers, Peter PS: I tried reproducing it here, on 32 and 64 bit, with master and with xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.901-2. No success. _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
