Xorg.0.log

I'm not sure where "Gnome services" belongs, starting here - please reassign if gnome-settings is not the right place. 



Almost a year back I reported bug 666465, which is about touchpad not working after upgrade to Fedora 14. I thought it's a matter of the driver, but the touchpad works in some situations (shortly in GDM) and then stops. 


Now, since my work habbits are incompatible with Gnome3 and started using XFCE, I noticed that the touchpad works flawlessy, but stops once Gnome services are started (this is a startup option in XFCE). 

I'm attaching Xorg log & `ps axu' output in hope if will be useful. Nothing interesting in /var/log/messages


What other information might be useful for you?

ps axu

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad touchpad-enabled true



does that fix it?

Hi Peter, sorry for the late response. 

That indeed does fix the issue.

Comment 4 David Kovalsky 2012-04-04 15:13:10 UTC
Hmm, likely not related, but after Gnome services are started my numeric part of the keyboard is not working too. And trying to checkout the settings leads to a crash (see bug 741692).

Closing as WORKSFORME. Not sure why this was disabled, maybe it was some leftover from a previous configuration?

For the other parts, please file separate bugs, thanks.
