The problem is, when i do :
X -config /root/X11/xorg.conf
i see a black screen with the cross pointer of the mouse, but i cant move the mouse, and i cant quit from with tried CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, nothing, i do ALT+F2, and open a new shell, and then i dot ALT+F1 to return to the old one, and i see some erros, like, device "mouse" not found device "kbd" not found.. :S
Then i tried
Cat /dev/input/mice
and i move the mouse, and click, and everything seems to work just fine.
Sorry if this in the wrong section, or the problem itself is dumb, but i tried everything belive me. If someone could help, i would apreciate. Btw, not an english person, i have a very bad english indeed lol
Tks in advance

and i think i have some udev rules to create those mouse links:
/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules:
KERNEL=="event*", SYSFS{idVendor}=="056a", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK="input/wacom"
KERNEL=="mouse*", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0007", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK="input/mouse_udev"
you can try something like this. hope it helps

Diaz, i have another question for you Could you turn off the leads of the razer, on arch?

didn't try it, but maybe there is some option we can pass in xorg or maybe with some aplication. Sometime ago i was tracking an application that changed various changes in deathadder, but never tried it and lost the link.
