Hello, all. I am slowly trying to get an working X environment, and the struggles continue.
Now, I can get into X as a normal user, but I get no input control - no keyboard, no mouse. As a result, I can't even get out of X and I have to just shut the machine off using the power button and restart.
My Xorg.0.log file tells me
Code:
No input driver specified, ignoring this device
for literally every event. It ignores the keyboard, it ignores the mouse, it ignores the sound card...everything.
I have just re-compiled evdev locally. Before that, it wouldn't even start the X server.
It's a version of OpenSUSE 13.2 that I created with SUSEStudio. I doesn't have the default version of X, though. As you can see in the log, I compiled the X server yesterday using the most current source. I also compiled new versions of the vesa driver and evdev.
Here are the relevant portions of my Xorg.0.log:
Code:

It's saying, "This device may have been added with another device file." Which device file might that be? And how do I get it to stop so that evdev can handle it? Or is that even what I should be doing?
Mouse and keyboard can be driven by evdev or mouse/keyboard driver respectively. If I recall correctly Xorg loads only evdev automatically. To use mouse and/or keyboard driver instead of evdev they must be loaded in xorg.conf.
Okay, but how do I get evdev to work? I know it's there, I just compiled it yesterday.
And this notation in the log file says to me that it is just not loading the individual drivers even though they are in xorg.conf.

Where exactly should xorg.conf be? I created one using X -configure, but am not sure where to copy it to because it puts it in the home directory of root.
