           Summary: xorg 6.7.99.2 doesn't recognize my SUN Type6 USB
                    keyboard
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Input/Keyboard
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: willie at froq.net


Using the same xorg.conf as 6.7.0, X doesn't start telling me it couldn't find 
a core keyboard. Changing the driver from 'keyboard' to 'kbd' didn't help, 
either. I also tried to specify /dev/input/event0, but it still couldn't find 
the keyboard. The log doesn't help, too - it only tells me that X couldn't 
find the evdev module, but I compiled evdev in the kernel. 
 
I'm testing this on gentoo/ AMD64, kernel 2.6.7-gentoo-r14 with USB, input and 
evdev compiled into the kernel.  
 
PS: X sometimes hard-locks my system, but I think this has something to do 
with the keyboard problem, because there's no info on the crash in the 
logfile.
