Bug#572692: Please provide udev rule instead of hal fdi



Hello Julien,

Thanks. This should probably fix the package name typo in postinst.in
(although it should be harmless).

That part of the rule should be fine, though. ID_INPUT_MOUSE is set by
udev itself, and it's just for discovering which device to set the
driver for.

Right, that would be a problem indeed. I keep forgetting about this.

Right, the rule might do ENV{ID_INPUT.vmmouse}="1" instead of setting
x11_driver?

Thanks,

Martin
