>Severity: serious
>Priority: medium
>Category: ports
>Class: sw-bug
>Release: FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p3 i386
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD hermes 7.1-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p3 #0: Mon Mar 2 03:34:41 CET 2009 root at hermes:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HERMES i386
machine only with usb keyboard
kernel build without atkbd / kbdmux devices
>Description:
xorg-server can't load usb keyboards via config/hal.
It fails at device open, as hal have a device key.
This is not noticeable in an stock system.
The presence of an atkbd without a hal device key
makes xorg-server load the module.
Seems that xorg-server keyboard is not device oriented
and hal must not have a device key for usb keyboard
>How-To-Repeat:
You can see this on the Xorg logs.
In systems without kernel atkbd device, xorg-server
can't get a functional keyboad
>Fix:
Don't add a device key for usb keyborads, as is done
for at ones (PS/2)
