Hello!

I'm trying to set up X on my machine but it doesn't go well for me. I've followed the desktop configuration guide in the docs section but run into problem anyway.

The problem is that the computer works fine i bash, but in X I have no input devices. The diodes on the keyboard goes out when X starts up and when the ugly gray screen comes up I can't move the cursor or use ctrl+backspace for example. The characters I write in X are displayed in bash (I see them when I kill X).

The nvidia kernel module are loaded and my XF86config looks like this.
Code:

Section "Files"

I've tried with a normal PS/2 mouse (not a IMPS/2) without any result. Ca someone please give me a hint on where to look for a solution. I've tried XFree86 -configure, xf86cfg and xf86config without any luck.
