I just wanna file some bugs, maybe not bug of package but X.org itself. Everytime I login, gnome complain about:
Error activating XKB configuration.
Probably internal X server problem."
but keyboard works well w/o any problem, even after I uncomment the whole keyboard section, I still get this error message and keyboard still works well.
And my mouse's wheel doesn't scroll pages for me, I use the same config file as Xfree864.4.0. options like protocal IMPS/2 and so on keep the same.
Anyone has an idea? thanks.

Well, ZAxisMapping should work for your mouse, but the keyboard thing's just an issue with GNOME looking for an xkb thing called xfree86, but it's been renamed xorg, and it has no idea. The name changes are probably the main reasons it hasn't replace xfree yet.

Here is my Xfree config file:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Timeout" "70"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
EndSection
I do have ZAxisMapping, but wheel doesn't work, anything wrong with my configuration? It's really annoying without wheel.

what does emulate 3 buttons have to do with wheel?
Offline
If you have a wheel, that's the third button, and the fourth and fifth, so you need to turn off emulation, which is for 2-button mice, where you can hit both buttons at once to generate a mouse 3 event.

is ths X specific?
cause the last 1.5 year I've been using Xfree86 I always had [and worked] emulate3 buttons and oif course I have a wheel!

It's not xorg specific, but it is mouse specific.

Well, thank you, but after I comment the emulate3buttons, something like this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
#Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
#Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
#Option "Emulate3Timeout" "70"
#Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
EndSection
there is no luck. and I can come back to xfree4.4 without any problem, so I guess that's not the case

Mouse wheel problem has been solved, it's finally found to be a problem in the Device option, I change it to:
Option "Device" "/dev/mice/psaux"
instead of old
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Now wheel works again. I don't know why xfree86 can deal with it without any problem but xorg troubles.

Has anyone got GNOME to stop complaining? Maybe it's fixed in test2?

My mouse wheel isnt working either...
im using XFree 4.3 right now... and here is my mouse section of XF86Config:
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "imps/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/misc/psaux"
The rest is all marked out (#).
In Device is the same to use /dev/psaux as /dev/misc/psaux as the first one is a link to the second, also i changed "imps/2" to "IMPS/2" and didnt worked, so i dont think this is case sensitive...
Dont know what the problem is, and although im planning on updating X this week, i would like to get this solved as is real annoying.
Any tips on what may be going on?
I had the same things before and everything worked ok, i reinstalled Arch (this time from Widget ISO) last week and im still customizing some stuff.

Also, in case that doesn't work (it didn't for me for some reason), see http://bugs.archlinux.org/?do=details&id=772
Adding the symlinks mentioned in my bug report fix the bug for me. Btw, if the first method does work, please say so, because the xorg package has been updated since I tried it.
