Bug#570567: xserver-xorg-input-evdev: Should not enabled evdev when only INPUT_KEY is found



Hi,

Javier Kohen <jkohen@users.sourceforge.net> (19/02/2010):

please note that evdev handles both keyboard and mouse, so I guess
it's valid to use it with only a keyboard (that's only a wild guess, I
didn't look into the details yet).

Heh.

I think you may want to try the latest upstream release, built against
XServer 1.7 (squeeze/sid), available at: http://autobuild.ikibiki.org/

If the issue persists, please open a bug upstream:
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/

Product is xorg, component is Input/evdev.

Then giving us the bug number/link to the bug will help us track it.

Thanks already.

Mraw,
KiBi.
