Emulate3Buttons stops working after hibernating and resuming

Hi guys,
I have a little problem with Emulate3Buttons option. I have enabled Emulate3Buttons option in the xorg.conf file and when I starts the machine it works. If I hibernate and resume it stops working. I'm currently playing with .fdi files in the /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ folder because I suspect there are some conflicts with xorg and hal configuration.
Any suggestion?
Thank you all.

Maybe try to force a HAL restart on resume...
It's just a vague guess...

Forcing hal restart after resuming wasn't necessary. I demanded the three buttons emulation to hal. I commented the row in the xorg.conf then I copied the file /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ and I added the Emulate3Buttons key to the evdev driver section.
Now it works.
Code: Select all
<match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name" string="Linux">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">evdev</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>

Cool

Really sweet solution.
Can you post your solution on the wiki when you have time ?

I tried to do that but I don't have privileges to do it. It's there some section that normal users can edit?

Just navigate to a page that don't exists yet, having the title that you want, and you'll get an option to create it.

Just tag it at the end with the right category. This page for example:
http://www.salixos.org/wiki/index.php/H ... _Alsa_card
ends with
