As long as you aren't using a /etc/X11/xorg.conf, I suspect that
packages are useless (I'm not sure about that ;). Usually Debian doesn't
use an xorg.conf to set up X. Please try running Debian with an
xorg.conf.
Wow, my Debian xorg.conf is useless as an example for you, since it
doesn't have entries for keyboard and mouse.
I found something for my Suse install, you might try this for xorg.conf
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout[all]"
Screen "Screen[0]" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer"
Option "Clone" "off"
Option "Xinerama" "off"
EndSection
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "on"
Option "ZapWarning" "on"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard[0]"
Driver "kbd"
Option "Protocol" "Standard"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbModel" "microsoftpro"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Name" "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse"
Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
Option "Vendor" "Sysp"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
I'm not sure, since you're using braille, if you need an entry for vesa
and monitor settings to start X with an xorg.conf.
Perhaps you need to add
Section "Device"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Hth,
Ralle
OT PS: Some might wait for replies off-list, I'll write you ASAP, I'm
short in time at the moment, pardon , especially to S..
