Xorg on HP DL360 G4

[Graaf_van_Vlaanderen]

When starting Gnome or any other GUI the mouse doesn't move, while I can use it in terminal.
I tried to play around with the mouse daemon in the xorg.conf, but with little success.

Anybody any idea about how to solve this issue or about some debug procedure to follow?

What does your /etc/X11/xorg.conf look like?

If you're using Xorg 7.4 you might try to add to the ServerLayout section
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"


Are hal and dbus running too?

Dbus is running, but hal is not.
