    [SOLVED] X11 Server issue :-(

    Hi all,

    I am facing this issue since yesterday. I am just not able to login to my account using my default KDM. My usb connected mouse just stops working when the screen loads up and the I cannot type my login credentials(btw, I am running linux on my laptop). Only the touchpad works but it is of no use . I checked the dmesg. Could not find any obvious error in that. Started startx server and it did not work. I found that my irq_balancer service did not start by default as it was supposed to do, so I tried to restart is but in vain. I checked out the log of X.org where I found the following.
    ==
    ==
    (--) Mouse[3] auto-dev sets device to /dev/input/event2
    (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2"
    (**) Option "SHMConfig" "on"
    (--) Mouse[3] touchpad found
    (**) Option "SendCoreEvents"
    (**) Mouse[3]: always reports core events

    (II) I810(0): xf86UnbindGARTMemory: unbind key 3
    (II) I810(0): xf86UnbindGARTMemory: unbind key 2
    (WW) I810(0): Successfully set original devices (2)
    ==

    This clearly says that it could not load the keymap(for the keypad) and it could not find init font path element . If anyone had faced similar issue then please let me know how to troubleshoot it.


    Thnx

    Boot up in Command line mode and execute sax2. Try to reconfigure settings.
    Highlight SuSe title in GRUB Menu and press 3. Hit Enter key. SuSe will boot up in Command line mode. Log in as Regular user and execute this
    Code:
    su -
    sax2
    exit
    startx
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
