Package: xorg-x11
Severity: important

Hi.

i just installed the 6.8.99.901.dfsg.1-1 packages built by Sven Luther
for powerpc, that are now reaching experimental.

after xscreensaver starts, if i try to type in my password to unlock the
screen, no * is printed, and the timer gets reseted to the beginning.

if i go to console mode with alt+ctl+f1, and kill xscreensaver, the
mouse works fine, and alt+tab too. but no other key event seem to be
able to reach the screen. some other weird things happen, such as the
gnome menu not willing to open.

i tried killing just about all my processes from the console, but no
luck. restarting X does it.

the keyboard is an apple usb keyboard with an italian layout (but i
prefer the us one). the relevant section in my xorg.conf reads:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"Generic Keyboard"
	Driver		"keyboard"
	Option		"CoreKeyboard"
	Option		"XkbRules"	"xorg"
	Option		"XkbModel"	"pc105"
	Option		"XkbLayout"	"us"
	Option		"XkbOptions"	"lv3:lwin_switch"
EndSection

cheers, piem

All the code involved here has changed several times since the report
was open, so I am just closing this bug against obsolete/removed code.
Feel free to open a new bug if some problems remains with latest
packages in unstable.
