HP-UX 11.11: X doesn't recognize mouse and keyboard

UNIX HP-UX
1

hi folks,
i've got a blank hp visualize C3000 workstation and installed HP-UX 11.11. When I want to start X, I get the following error message:

# X
Fatal server error:
Couldn't open X pointer device!  Is one attached?

I've connected an mouse and a keyboard with an usb/ps2 connector. ioscan lists them:

Try using a standard PS/2 mouse.

USB to PS2 connectors aren't reliable, eg they don't work on my KVM.

The C3000 Workstation has only USB-connetors. There are no PS/2 Connectors. I tried a native usb-mouse but it was the same problem. The keyboard(with usb-ps/2) works fine in console-mode.

Oh dear. Look through the supported hardware list then.

I found nothing usefull on the hp websites. I only got the blank machine, without software, without keyboard, without mouse, without anything else. I was happy to get the Software an now this. I allready used linux but the FX4 grahpics isn't supported by Xorg.

My HP J5000 supports almost any USB keyboard and mouse (even Microsoft USB mouse is working :D).
Don't use PS/2 to USB convertors. Buy normal USB keyboard and mouse.
J5000 is a big brother of C3000. Even on standard PC you way have problems with such convertors...

I checked my system with Silver Line USB mouse and keyboard, Genius keyboard and Microsoft mouse. Everything is working perfectly.
