X.org ABI inconsistent after install + update
Hi, I have reinstalled (from scratch) and updated (prt-get sysup) my Crux and now X11 didn't start with following error: module abi major version (15) doesn't match the server's version (18) I looked into logs and problem was related to VESA driver. I updated it and X started but there was issue with input. I updated eudev and mouse and it's better now. Any idea how to avoid such situation in future?

Not with our current toolchains/package db, I think. But I believe that our xorg maintainers do send emails to the list in this case. As a rule of thumb, I'd rebuild input and video drivers after every xorg-server upgrade. kind regards Thomas Penteker -- Zombie processes haunting the computer

What about bumping release version up in such situation? Thanks, Wawrzek -- Dr Wawrzyniec Niewodniczański or Wawrzek for short PhD in Quantum Chemistry & MSc in Molecular Engineering WWW: http://wawrzek.name E-MAIL: jobs@wawrzek.name Linux User #177124

That won't help someone doing a sysup from a fresh install. It's also kinda ugly :)
