I would suggest doing a full upgrade to Fedora 13, if possible. Having expressed my concern, I'd suggest looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if there are any messages from X11 in regard to the mouse or keyboard. I'd also try booting Fedora 12 (or is it Fedora 13) in inittab 3, and start X11 manually using startx, to see if there are any messages printed when X11 starts/stops. I can think of little else. Others will be able to give better advice. They will probably ask which kernel dependencies were upgraded. Perhaps, to get others to give better advice, it might be good to explain why you need to mix/match between Fedora 12 and Fedora 13. Again, I think it's a bad idea to mix/match things from different versions. I doubt if one could ask developers or post a bugzilla report asking for help. Personally, I wouldn't do this. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
