Hey all,
I've been making a project of getting a working BSD box running KDE lately, now I have the GUI downloaded but to get it running I need to have X.org running, so please allow me to go over a full summary of my problems:
It seems that whenever I run the command:
my screen flashes for a second, then leads me to a screen stating:
On this screen my keyboard loses all functionality, removing even the ability to turn on and off Num lock. After a bit of research I came to conclude that there was an error in my keyboard configuration with X.org that disables me from entering things such as ctrl + alt + bksp.
Now, included in my research I looked through the handbook and typed most, if not all, of the strings that it included on keyboard problems with x.org. I also made sure the recommended Hald and dbus commands were in place, but I still recieved the same result. As for reasons behind even configuring xorg.conf.new, whenever I enter just [cmd=]startx[/cmd] it gives me a message stating:
Lastly, I have attempted to configure the keyboard using the command:
[cmd=]setxkbmap qwerty[/cmd]
but the only result I get is the message
I know these are a lot of problems to take in, but any help that anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I'm happy to add more information if anyone needs it, this is simply all I have at the moment.
