Niltze!

Attempting to build GNOME 3 from source, I lost keyboard input to my
graphical environment -- which already was running my build of X from
Xorg and was working fine with WindowMaker.

I rebuilt Xorg 15.0 with the following module/components specified:

But still can not type even at my XDM login prompt.

Any insight would be appreciated.


Best Professional Regards.
