Need help with getting xserver-kdrive-vesa working

[Mark Butsch]

Hello,
 
I have been trying to get xserver-kdrive-vesa working with my image.
 
Xvesa will run, but it doesn't respond to the keyboard (ctrl-alt-backspace). Using "-keybd keyboard" doesn't help.
 
The mouse will work if I use "-mouse mouse,/dev/mouse,3button"
 
I found a post that mentioned using "evdev" , so I compiled it into my kernel, but that didn't help either.
 
Also, if anyone can point me to a good description of how all the X window stuff is supposed to be used, that would be a help. I am not sure when to use programs like xinit or startx and howor when they will use the various scripts and config file sin /etc/X11.
 
Thanks for your help,
 
Mark
