Hi,
Bit of an oddity this week. Have been running FreeBSD for some years and use the machines for embedded sw development and general experimentation. Various hardware to a pretty standard setup, in this case, 11.2 amd64 + slim + mate desktop. Usually works out of the box with no issues. with the most recent being an old Sun X4170 with low end radeon 2250 pcie graphics, also 11.2 and no issues. Built up a fresh machine, a Proliant DL360 G8, over the new year to the same spec, but both keyboard and mouse are none functional at the slim login. If I disable slim and reboot into text mode, keyboard and mouse both work, as does the Radeon driver modesetting. The Xorg log file says it can't find the keyboard or mouse, both of which work in text mode ???. Checked all the config files and can see nothing unusual, so short of a reinstall, run out of ideas. Wonder if this is this a known problem, or am I missing something obvious ?...
Regards & Thanks
Chris
