Did you restart X on the F21 box so it would pick up the modified
configuration? If you didn't use startx, that would mean logging out
to the greeter / window manager and logging back in.
Is gpm installed? If it is, and you log in to multiuser instead of
graphical on the F21 box, does the mouse work? Does the keyboard?
That will determine if the issue is at system level configuration or X
configuration.
.
I start the computer and login normally with the keyboard, Everything
works normally until I "startx." Then the graphic login screen is
displayed and the cursor blinks waiting for me to enter the password but
I can not, at that point the mouse and keyboard are not responding. It
seems something is botched in my attempt to shoe horn X into the system?
Can you ssh to the box and look at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file? Perhaps
a clue is lurking in there. You should also try "ctrl-alt-F2" to see
if you get a console login (may not work if the keyboard is really
botched).
Here are a couple of /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf files I have
for reference:
File 1 (from the machine I'm writing this on):
# Read and parsed by systemd-localed. It's probably wise not to edit
this file
# manually too freely.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
File 2 (from my laptop):
# This file is autogenerated by system-setup-keyboard. Any
# modifications will be lost.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-setup-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105+inet"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
# Option "XkbVariant" "(null)"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,"
EndSection
File 3 (from my machine at home):
# This file is autogenerated by system-setup-keyboard. Any
# modifications will be lost.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-setup-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105+inet"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
# Option "XkbVariant" "(null)"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,"
EndSection
File 1 is from a machine built from scratch as an F21 machine (fresh
install), while files 2 and 3 appear identical and they're from systems
that were "fedup"ed from F20 to F21.
