Bug#512802: xserver-xorg-input-evdev: Bluetooth mouse goes idle and evdev driver doesn't reconnect
I don't have any input devices configured in my xorg.conf, and still I
get the same problem.
Here is my whole xorg.org minus comments:

When my bluetooth mouse goes idle, Xorg.0.log starts getting filled with
the following lines:
(EE) Logitech Bluetooth Mouse: Read error: No such device
After I power-cycle the mouse, following appears in the logs:
==> /var/log/kern.log <==
Apr 25 17:25:53 x41 kernel: [71607.637936] input: Logitech Bluetooth

What's even worse, after this even plugging in a USB mouse won't work
anymore:
(II) config/hal: Adding input device Genius NetScroll + Traveler
(**) Genius NetScroll + Traveler: always reports core events
(**) Genius NetScroll + Traveler: Device: "/dev/input/event9"
(WW) Genius NetScroll + Traveler: device file already in use. Ignoring.
(II) UnloadModule: "evdev"
(EE) PreInit returned NULL for "Genius NetScroll + Traveler"
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8)
Hot-plugging USB and Bluetooth mice worked out of the box with the
"mouse" driver, so the same level of functionality should be provided by
"evdev" driver now that it's the default.
