yap, edev still have a bunch of problems with xserver 1.4 + (one of than
is not have cursors keys if you want your native language keyboard
layout), I simply install an edev version for xserver-1.3 which don't
load at all.
And I work with synaptics git drive which emulates very well 3rd button
of my notebook. And usb mouse works in hotplugging very well too.
