+ <!-- 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.
+
+ 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"
+
+ FIXME: Support tablets too.
+ TODO: I think its fixed, can't test
