If this does not make it work then you might have a problem with udev.

You need to purge the hotplug package; it has been removed when your kernel and udev were upgraded, but its configuration files are still present and they are known to cause problems with the new udev. (There should have been a message about this, but it is easy to overlook it when you are doing an upgrade of many packages.) Run dpkg --purge hotplug as root. After that the status of hotplug should be "pn" instead of "rc". Reboot and see if the mouse works. (Check with "lsmod" if the psmouse module has been loaded.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org Hey Florian, Thanks very much for your assistance! I do appreciate it! Yes, I go ahead and upgrade the linux-image to 2.6.18 and reload udev. Now it seems the mouse problem is gone but I still not be able to startx.

Regarding the SecurityPolicy file: See my other message. The xkb_ output is normal, it just tells you how the keyboard is configured.

Do I need to reinstall the whole Debian Etch? No, you definitely do not have to reinstall Etch just to get X working. At most you need to purge all Xorg (and old XFree86) packages and install them again. However, before you do that check out these links: http://www.debian.org/releases/stabl...en.html#s-xorg http://wiki.debian.org/Xorg69To7#hea...1827697766afc4 According to the Debian wiki, I would try this: dpkg --purge --force-depends xfonts-base aptitude install xfonts-base If that still does not then you should post the output of: dpkg -l x{org,server,fonts}\* | awk '/^ii/{print $2,$3}' -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Make sure that the "xterm" package is installed and that /usr/bin/xterm has the correct properties: $ ls -l /usr/bin/xterm -rwxr-sr-x 1 root utmp 363280 2007-06-18 15:53 /usr/bin/xterm > FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing. This is harmless as far as I know.

Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org Hey Florian, It turns out I did not installed xterm package. Install xterm eliminate the problem. Now I got my Xserver up and running. Thanks very much for you patience guide through. I do really appreciate it. By the way can you tell me what is a x-terminal-emulator do? Thanks again!
