Comment:

 Here's my [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=988305 first
 attempt] at building this patch into olpc-utils; unfortunately, the patch
 provided by dsaxena doesn't apply cleanly. I don't expect any problems
 fixing that up tomorrow.

 _However_, this patch changes a fundamental aspect of system -- namely,
 how evdev is loaded -- and will therefore require either significant
 retesting or love from someone who actually understands X. (Which I
 don't.)

 Thoughts?

 P.S. - Marco has some conflicting patches in the main OLPC-3 branch of
 olpc-utils in koji. Marco -- can you comment on your patches?
