X11 AllowEmptyInput
by Wawrzyniec Niewodnicza�ski 26 Dec '08

26 Dec '08

Hi, I have had a great problem with running Xserver.It was starting fine, but neither mouse nor keyboard was responding. After some time (and may test with xorg.conf working with ZenWalk, Crux 2.3 as well as with no conf file) I figured out that the "AllowEmptyInput" option is turn on by default! Adding Option "AllowEmptyInput" "no" to xorg.conf file resolve the issue. Is is general bug of Xorg? Wawrzek PS.

problem accessing http://crux.nu/
by vitaly＠copperisle.com 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

Hi, very sorry to say I have been unable to access http://crux.nu/ for some reason, from source ip address in range 41.207.162.* (isp in Lome, TOGO, West Africa). This problem has been for several months. I report it now because I am interested in 2.5 release. This is not problem with dns lookup, which returns 213.132.101.140 okay. Nor is it specific to any particular http client, as various firefox and lynx browsers behave the same: connection attempt without ever response. It is as though http://crux.nu/ is not responding to connections from this source address. For example, if I ssh in to my slicehost, access with lynx is then successful. Many thanks if you can provide assistance! -- Vitaly

Hi, Is there are any way to force CRUX to recognize all ATA drivers as /dev/sdxy rather then /dev/hdxy?
