FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE: mouse and kbd freezes after gdm starts

[Zenny]

Hi:

The mouse and keyboard stops responding after gdm starts. (on all
occasions gdm and gnome enabled in rc.conf with or without moused, hal
and dbus enabled). The xorg 1.7.7 worked with a black border all over
screen, so used poudiere to upgrade to xorg-server-1.12.4_4,1

The card is:

vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x04611043 chip=0x67791002
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI'
device = 'Caicos [Radeon HD 6450]'
class = display
subclass = VGA



The only thing that I could see in the attached log (line 109-126):

[ 38.408] (II) Loading /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.so
[ 38.428] (II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation"

There is no xorg.conf created. Can someone tell me what makes the kbd
and mouse modules keeps on getting unloaded?! Thanks!

compiling hal helped for me in a situation like this.

This seems pretty clear, doesn't it? You previously had xorg 1.7.7
installed, you upgraded to xorg 1.12.4 and when you start X, the log
file informs you that your mouse and keyboard drivers are compiled for
xorg 1.7.7, will not work with this version, and are unloaded.

Recompile and reinstall the appropriate drivers.

You might also want to verify your process for upgrading packages -
poudriere is a system for building up to date packages, it is not an
update tool. Using poudriere correctly with the appropriate update
tool should make it impossible for this scenario to happen, so there
is probably something wrong with your process. You can verify it by
listing it out here.

Cheers

I did compile hal using poudriere and upgraded. Still the problem persists.

[Zenny]

I recompiled accordingly and upgraded the drivers too as my poudriere.list has:

Thanks Tom for your response.

FYI, poudriere.conf reads:

ZPOOL=zroot
FREEBSD_HOST=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org
RESOLV_CONF=/etc/resolv.conf
BASEFS=/usr/local/poudriere
USE_TMPFS=yes
DISTFILES_CACHE=/usr/ports/distfiles
POUDRIERE_DATA=${BASEFS}/data
CHECK_CHANGED_OPTIONS=verbose
CHECK_CHANGED_DEPS=yes
PKG_REPO_SIGNING_KEY=/usr/local/etc/ssl/keys/pkg.key
WRKDIR_ARCHIVE_FORMAT=txz
NOLINUX=yes

/etc/make.conf reads:

WITH_NEW_XORG=yes
WITH_KMS=yes
WITH_GALLIUM=yes
MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes

/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/10-amd64-make.conf has:

WITH_NEW_XORG="yes"
WITH_KMS="yes"

Did I miss something?

Do not install radeonhd, it is obsolete. The radeon driver in
xf86-video-ati works for all the Radeon cards that are supported.

HAL and dbus should probably be recompiled together. X can be prevented
from using hal at all by setting Option "AutoAddDevices" "Off" in
ServerLayout.

The wiki has a section on installing or upgrading to the KMS drivers:

poudriere is a package builder, it is not a package installer. How you
are installing and upgrading your packages - you do not have
WITH_PKGNG set, for instance, so are you using portupgrade or
portmaster?

[Zenny]

SOLVED:

This seems to be an issue discussed here:
https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/347

And it is solved by running:

pkg clean -ya

to disable cache.

#pkg update
#pkg upgrade
#pkg install -f xf86-input-keyboard xf86-input-keyboard

SOLVED. Thanks to everyone for the inputs.
