[SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

This happened a few days ago after an upgrade.
No usable X sessions available!
I ssh from another machine to get to a vterm, kill the wm (SLiM) and get to a console.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Xorg.0.log as root user has no keyboard or mouse modules loading.

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

When I read the available outputs its not Daedalus you are running but a mixture from Excalibur (Testing) and Ceres (Unstable). Don't know if that is a good idea. Issues to be expected?

Don't think that its related, but I would replace slim (deprecated) by lightdm.

Edith: sorry for my unqualified rant. Both my Excalibur only VM Lightdm/Mate and Lightdm/Cinnamon work fine.

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Hi Rolfie,
Thanks for that, Yeah, I noticed to that after the reports were generated!
in defence:

$ cat /etc/devuan_version 
daedalus/ceres

I have thought about rolling back to stable, though, it was running nicely for over a year, till a few days ago!

I have tried lightdm, but it refuses to even get to show a X screen and falls back to the console.
I have another go at lightdm and other dms over the next few days.
thanks again for your suggestions!

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Maybe you started off from Daedalus since neither Excalibur no ceres have any installation media. And when that entry isn't updated .... In any case the sources.list tells the truth.

Well, you laptop isn't brand new, so Daedalus should work fine. On the other hand a clean testing = Excalibur also might have some charms to you. But both will require a clean install, you won't be able to easily clean up the mixture you got.

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Looking at the end of your Xorg.0.log, I see it progressively failing to load various video drivers due to permission issues, then exiting with a "no screens found" error:

[   646.568] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: Permission denied

[...]
Fatal server error:

A similar thing happened to me several days ago after an Excalibur update. The system had an Intel iGPU and had been using the modesetting driver, which stopped working for unknown reasons. I suspect it was related to the usrmerge issues, as it happened at the same time as other confirmed usrmerge issues. I was able to get X running again by forcing it to use the Intel driver. It's possible the modesetting driver would work again now that I've merged /usr, but I haven't had a chance to test it.

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Hi stultumanto,
Thanks for the insight!
Did you do force X to use the intel driver via /etc/X11/xorg.conf or some other way?
As in kernel parameters at boot time?
Thanks again,

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Note that the /dev/dri/* devnodes should be in group video and the same for /dev/fb0; group video with read+write access. They are made so by eudev, so the first guess would be that you are using some other hotplug handler which fails to do so.

The second part of that is that the user also needs to be in group video.

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Hi ralph.ronnquist
thanks for that, another clue!
TLDR: eudev isn't running as it can't find sed because PATH in the script won't go to /usr/bin as its PATH="/lib/udev:/sbin:/bin"
For eudev/unstable 3.2.14-1 amd64
and sed/unstable 4.9-2 amd64

I edited /etc/init.d/eudev to include /usr/bin in the PATH
Started service eudev, wowee saw a bunch of text fly up the screen!
Restarted service slim, got a working keyboard and logged in!
Yippee!
Thanks for the hint, that's solved it for now.
Until eudev gets updated with the  PATH="/lib/udev:/sbin:/bin"

eudv isn't running! 

# service eudev status
udevd is not running ... failed!

eudev wont start as is can't find sed!

# service eudev start
/etc/init.d/eudev: 84: sed: not found
mknod: missing operand after ‘c!’
Special files require major and minor device numbers.
Try 'mknod --help' for more information

locating this line of code in /etc/init.d/eudev

# sed -n '84p' /etc/init.d/eudev
      c|b|c!|b!) mknod -m $mode $name $type $(echo $arg | sed 's/:/ /') ;;

locating sed:

# which sed
/usr/bin/sed

and the path

# echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

but the script sets a different path on line 11:

# grep -n PATH /etc/init.d/eudev
11:PATH="/lib/udev:/sbin:/bin"

searching for eudev and grep packages

# apt list --installed | grep -E 'eudev\/|sed\/'
eudev/unstable,testing,now 3.2.14-1 amd64 [installed]
sed/unstable,testing,now 4.9-2 amd64 [installed]

Re: [SOLVED] Xorg not detecting keyboard or mouse in Excalibur/Ceres

Hi rdav, I'm happy to see you've solved your issue! I'll go ahead and answer your question anyway, in case someone else needs this information in the future. I created a file named /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with the following contents:

Section "Device"
      Identifier "Intel Graphics"
      Driver "Intel"
      Option "DRI" "3"
EndSection

It's also necessary to have the xserver-xorg-video-intel package installed. In most cases, people will have installed X11 via the xserver-xorg virtual package which pulls in all of the drivers automatically, so installing this package manually isn't required.

Of course, the Intel driver will only work on systems with Intel iGPUs! The Xorg documentation recommends using the modesetting driver with later versions of Intel iGPUs, but apparently the Intel-specific driver will also work with them. My system has a 2nd gen i5, and I haven't noticed a difference either way.
