Let me know if I'm misunderstanding this. the evdev input driver selection is available, and gives the problem I've described here. The only way in the past to get the correct mouse behavior, however, was to use the traditional "mouse" driver, with the evdev protocol (the first configuration block listed in this bug report). This configuration yields the following error:

> (EE) Mouse0: Unknown protocol "evdev"
> (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Mouse0"

This occurs with or without the evdev driver specified in the Module section.
