no keyboard or mouse in Xorg

Dear all,

 

I just finished building Xorg. I have xome problems getting the config right. When I start X, I get the following output:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

X.Org X Server 1.11.2

Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support

Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

xinit: giving up

xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Why is "Section" not a valid keyword in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf?

When I remove al the config-files from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, Xorg will start, but mouse and keyboard do not work. Any suggestions?

 

Regards,

Thomas

Compiling KDE4 some comments

Alright my first message if I have the wrong list, I'm sorry and I'm a
really big fan of LFS (for years) keep up the good work.

------------------
on page:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/kde4/pre-install-config.html

several packages configured by python have the commandline
python ./configure
it must be:
python configure.py
-----------------------
libatasmart:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libatasmart.html
the web site doesn't work anymore:
http://0pointer.de/public/libatasmart-0.17.tar.gz
I downloaded it from:
http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/blfs/svn/l/libatasmart-0.17.tar.gz
----------------------#

pyQT4
Compile it python ./configure
doesn't work for me (script uses qtmake form qt3), I did this:
python configure.py -q /usr/local/qt4/bin/qmake
(could be my problem all my dirs are a bit screwed compared to FHS).
-------------------------

anyway thanks for making LFS, lot's of work but I love it :-).

Intro Xorg-7.6-2 - Should we Skip half the page if prefix = /usr ?

Hello Folks,

I'm dusting off my LFS 7.0 and BLFS work, and I have been thinkning
about why XOrg won't compile for me.

I keep hearing about references to PKG_CONFIG_PATH in emails here and in
articles and things I find online.

Does anyone think maybe I should NOT skip the rest of that page [ BLFS /
x / xorg7.html ] ?

It seems harmless enough to do if you have /usr as your prefix. 

I'm just curious what you folks think :) Thank You.

--Jason

How to build a mini&useful LAMP with SSH server

 Hello Everyone!

After I finished the LFS building,I hope to build  a mini&useful LAMP with SSH server.
So this time I start to build the system after building the toolchain.
And  I think these packages are in need:GRUB, Kernel, Glibc, Bash, IPRoute2, Apache2, PHP,  OpenSSH, OpenSSL,MySQL,CMake,cURL,libarchive,expat.

But I'm not sure If I was right,could you give me some suggestion?

Thank you!~

Error building llvm-3.0


.ExternalClass .ecxhmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.ecxhmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma;}
Hello everybody,

I have successfully build my own LFS system (SVN-20120122) and now, i continue with the BLF book.
I currently try to implement the X Windows System Environnement (chapter 24), but i failled.

I'm at the step where I must build MesaLib-7.11.2 with it's dependencies called LLVM-3.0.

When i'm compiling LLVM-3.0, i've got this error :

llvm[2]: ======= Finished Linking Release Executable not (without symbols)
make[2]: Leaving directory `/sources/llvm-3.0.src/utils/not'
make[2]: Entering directory `/sources/llvm-3.0.src/utils/unittest'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/sources/llvm-3.0.src/lib/VMCore'
make: *** [all] Error 1
root [ /sources/llvm-3.0.src ]#

For your information, all packages which i've compiled before LLVM-3.0 have successfully compiled.

I didn't find any solution in the web, or i hope to find a solution with the LFS/BLFS community.

If somebody have any solution or idea, it'll be nice to explain me what can i do.

Best regards,

Tony

Glad you got it fixed, but I thought I'd point out the misunderstanding 
above as well. When using relative links, they are relative to the link 
target, not the current directory (a very common misconception). IOW: 
/usr/lib/../../lib, not /sources/lib. The difference between ../../lib 
and /lib in the link becomes very important if you were to mount that 
partition elsewhere.

So the bottom line is 'setclock' no longer stops nowadays,
i.e., we'll forever miss the thrill of seeing 
the current script code section,
stop)
"Setting hardware clock..."
  hwclock --systohc ...

in action.

Questions on (b)lfs-bootscripts-20120127

 4. How is the 'setclock' script run on "stop" (reboot, poweroff, etc.)?

There used to be a 'K46setclock' in 'rc6.d' (i.e. level 6):

"Setting hardware clock..."
 hwclock --systohc ...

What am I missing?
Thanks,

kmod-4


Bruce - strictly lfs - sorry, but I'm not registered in lfs-support.

I replaced module-init-tools with kmod.

In the configure --libdir=/lib

This means that kmod puts libkmod.pc in /lib/pkgconfig

Of course, there are many ways to get the pc file into /usr/lib/pkgconfig, where it belongs.

I did:

sed -i 's|pkgconfigdir = $(libdir)/pkgconfig|pkgconfigdir = /usr/lib/pkgconfig|' Makefile.am

autoreconf

then as per the book.

I'm sure you'll have your preferred solution.

jb.

I'm sorry for your troubles, unfortunately I'm a bit busy at the moment
and I won't be able to look at this for a day of two.
