0 aramisqc Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 INPUT_DEVICES="evdev synaptics" enabled by default in stage3 Sorry ! I've just downloaded a Stage3. There's no INPUT_DEVICES in /etc/portage/make.conf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Oleg Vinichenko Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 it's enabled in profile :) so, yes if we want to be 100% accurate it's enabled by default in portage tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 tsymiroro Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 Yes, I have INPUT_DEVICES in /etc/portage/make.conf I redo my install and report here. In my first partition I have a debian SID, my install is a dual boot with funtoo. I redo install from a chroot from the debian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 For resize the partition, I download SystemRescueCD (4.4.1) After booting with it and do "startx" I have the graphical interface but the same issue too. The internal mouse of my notebook didn't work. When I plug a USB mouse, it work. I re-install my funtoo. I'm in the step emerge -aev @system. After this I do the kernel and grub install. After this I do the xorg/x11 install, and continue to report here. I think that the problem is "evdev: Mouse0: Configuring as keyboard" in Xorg.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 In my old /etc/portage/make.conf I have INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev synaptics" In my new install I modify it to INPUT_DEVICES="evdev synaptics" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 digifuzzy Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 tsymiroro: I vaugely recall Dell laptops sometimes had the odd issue with trackpads etc. I had to google this one... A quick with "linux synaptic DELL Inspiron" found the following url: Ubuntu Bug 1305522 From my experience, Dell's track record with linux tends to be hit/miss. I'm not familiar with Dell laptop models, so I can't say for certain if the driver issue is your problem. Maybe this will point you in the right direction. Good Luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 The link in ubuntu bugtracker can not help me Their solution is installing a new kernel (3.16), but my kernel is newer (3 18) After reducing INPUT_DEVICES to "evdev synaptics"; I do eix-update emerge -ev @system emerge -aDNuv @world emerge -av xorg-x11 xterm xclock twm xinit In my /etc/portage/package.use I have x11-apps/xinit -minimal But the issue is not resolved Always no mouse I try to install openbox and fluxbox and report here when mouse can work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 digifuzzy Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 One thing I've noticed with Xorg. After emerging, I had to reboot. Then drivers seemed to respond. Just a suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 anak1n Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 How did you configure your kernel? Manually, genkernel, etc. I had a few laptops that I had to enable different things in my kernel to get the trackpad to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Manual config of the kernel. Reboot don't change anything. I continue my investigation, I think that (II) evdev: Mouse0: Configuring as keyboard is the source of the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 I(ve try the LiveCD of calculate-linux but have the same problem with my mouse. Now I download a cd for sabayon to try it. In debian SID (dual boot with my funtoo) mouse work well since the installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tsymiroro Posted January 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 With LiveCD of Sabayon Gnome it work in his make.conf INPUT_DEVICES="evdev void" I try to re-install funtoo with the kernel .config of sabayon and his INPUT_DEVICES parameter HS Sabayon has multiple files in /etc/portage/ that are really dirty/unclean.
