Thanks for that. [08:17] However... :) [08:17] The inputdevice you define is not in the default serverlayout, so it's not being used at all anyway. [08:21] duh [08:21] I thought I tested that [08:22] so the autodetection code is buggy [08:22] since it doesn't honor the choices in the xorg.conf [08:22] keyboard is fine [08:36] bryce: 915resolution is obsolete..

[08:49] no, but that would be sweet [08:49] I'd need some api for determining color schemes or something though.
