I have a Logitech Cordless Internet Pro keyboard and mouse, both connect
to the same USB port. The interesting thing is that some keyboard
events are transmitted via the mouse (it seems rather braindead to me,
but that's the case). This is part of my /proc/bus/input/devices:
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c505 Version=0110
N: Name="Logitech USB Receiver"
H: Handlers=kbd event0
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c505 Version=0110
N: Name="Logitech USB Receiver"
H: Handlers=kbd mouse0 event1
^^^^^^^^^^
The change to hal (introducing x11-input.fdi, bug #446851) didn't just render
some keys unmapped, it also rendered the middle and right mouse key
non-functional. In fact, pressing either middle or right mouse key
would kill X :-(
I tried the configuration suggested for Logitech Cordless Desktop LX
501[1] (which also has a mouse that is part keyboard). That didn't
solve the problem however.
After commenting out the contents of
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi and restoring
xorg.conf to its original contents I now have a properly working X
again.
I've attached my old Xorg.0.log for your viewing pleasure, I especially
like the 96 button mouse :-)
