Thanks Aivils! Could you please tell us if you're still having issues with squeeze or sid? The input system was changed a lot, and evdev + autoconfiguration might have helped fix such issues. See our started doc about that: http://pkg-xorg.alioth.debian.org/howto/configure-input.html Hopefully we'll be shipping a multiseat doc at some point. KiBi.
