Also when installing the system from USB the keyboard and mouse don't work.

Nitin, can you determine if this is the result of Ross's recent xorg refactor?

This happened on fri2 also. And reverting the Rosses' xorg change fixes the issue.


Nitin

*Messed up*.  Can you replicating fixing it with a xorg.conf that just contains the input hotplug fragment?  If so, logs from both working and not working would be good.

I'm about to disappear for a bit so don't have time to check the BSPs, but check that you've the xf86-input-evdev driver installed too.

The issue is specific to X server, all of our EMGD & noemgd bsps are broken due to this change. And all of these have older version of X. Rest of the BSPs like, sugerbay, nuc & jasperforest are not broken.

I will send fixes for the broken BSPs.

Hm, check the xorg logs when it loads the drivers - it may be warning that module versions don't match.  This shouldn't happen since the driver ABI dependencies landed in 1.4, but you never know.

crownbay-noemgd has this problem too

Also, on FRI2 after install.

Huh. Now I've seen that before which is totally annoying.  Broken udev, iirc.  Pinging a friend.

Can you verify that the evdev, mouse and keyboard xf86-input drivers are installed in the image?  A full broken xorg log would be useful.

I noticed that the target image does not have the evdev kernel driver, which provides the /dev/input/event* device files, which xserver is looking for.

Adding this to kernel config gets the event files, and fixes the issue.

CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y

These commits in meta-intel repo fixes the issue.
