Bug#358751: Remove "Option 'Device'"



I had the same problem. I guess you also made a udev rule to create 
/dev/input/mx1000. But looking at the manpage Option "Device" is 
discouraged:

       Option "Device" "string"
              Specifies the device  note  through  which  the  device  can  be
              accessed.     This    will    generally    be    of   the   form
              "/dev/input/eventX", where X is some integer.  The mapping  from
              device node to hardware is system-dependent.
              Please note that use of this option is discouraged.

So I changed this:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Logitech MX1000"
        Driver          "evdev"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/mx1000"
EndSection

into this:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Logitech MX1000"
        Driver          "evdev"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Name"                  "Logitech USB Receiver"
EndSection

And all was fine again.

HTH,
