No Mouse or Keyboard after startx
Hi,
so i installed Arch and everything seemed to work good, until i installed gnome and tried startx...
So what happens then is that it gives me the xterm (i think) windows and stuff, but i can't use my mouse or my keyboard! The only thing i can do is restarting...no other keyboard function is working.
I took a look at my logfile and found nothing very strange...only those two things:
- VESA: Backing store disabled
- Screen 0 is not DRI capable
Any ideas?

You probably haven't installed xf86-input-evdev.
