    Ahhhhh
    root$ input-kbd 8
    /dev/input/event8
    protocol version mismatch (expected 65536, got 65537)
    and the same for all event devices??

    I have input-kbd from xserver-xorg-input-kbd in Debian/sid, which is
    at 1:1.4.0-2 version.

    Does that mean that 2.6.37rc is too new for the user space?

    Best wishes
