Description Caleb Cushing 2006-06-03 17:25:38 UTC

this breaks X from starting and as far as I'm concerned should still be Hard Masked. Xorg 7.1 won't start at all with this loading on my system.  I'll attach my Xorg.0.log

Xorg.0.log

here's my Xorg.0.log I've put Xorg 7.1 packages in package.mask for now. I believe Xorg 7.1 worked when I used a normal mouse driver (it's been a while since I tried it). but I need evdev for all 12 mx1000 buttons to work.

The evdev driver is known to be somewhat experimental. Please file this bug upstream at bugs.freedesktop.org in the xorg product and post the URL here so we can track it.

Thanks!
