Is this right? My evdev-driven devices did work without any special
"Load" lines for evdev. I tried with them and without, no difference.
That said, even when configured properly, the new evdev driver seems
to have some substantial issues with the MX1000 if not other mice, that
the old driver:mouse protocol:evdev configuration didn't exhibit. (See
my bugs, #347677 (also submitted upstream) and #347681)
Perhaps it would be useful to bring back the old protocol:evdev option
until upstream makes some progress with these?
