    <!-- The way this works: 
    
    Match against some input device (see the HAL specification for more 
    information), and then merge in keys, which you can use to specify 
    the configuration similar to the way you would in xorg.conf. You will 
    need to restart HAL after making changes. If you are having issues,
    starting X with the -logverbose 7 flag may yield useful information.
    
    Keys Supported:
    
        Key "input.x11_driver" (string)
            This specifies the driver to use. You MUST specify this option,
            or a driver will not be loaded and the rest will be ignored by
            Xorg
            
        Key "input.x11_options.<option name>" (string)
            This allows you to specify arbitrary options to pass to the driver.
            Anything you would normally specify in xorg.conf goes here. So, for
            option "Mode" in xorg.conf, you would specify the key name of
            "input.x11_options.Mode". 

	    Do not specify "input.x11_options.Device" since "input.device"
	    will be used automatically.

            You MUST specify all options as strings, otherwise the server will
            ignore them.

        Legacy Keys
	     "input.xkb.rules"
             "input.xkb.model"
             "input.xkb.layout"
             "input.xkb.variant"
             "input.xkb.options"
             
            These keys are deprecated. Use these instead:
	     "input.x11_options.XkbRules"
	     "input.x11_options.XkbModel"
	     "input.x11_options.XkbLayout"
	     "input.x11_options.XkbVariant"
	     "input.x11_options.XkbOptions"

	    See the evdev documentation for more information. 
    
    You will probably want to add the following option to the ServerFlags of 
    your xorg.conf:
    
        Option "AllowEmptyInput" "True"
