My keyboard has way way to many keys. Some of them are mapped into event numbers that are over 0×100 and the Xorg evdev drivers considers those to be mouse buttons.. Which is obviously wrong. After a little digging, I found the problem and I have a patch. I also decide I wanted my old behavior to the windows key back, that is, having it as Mod4 and nothing else, so I made another kinda patch. And now, for the first time since I bought that MX3100 crap, I have everything working the way it should!

After upgrading to Xorg 7.1, my keyboard/mouse combo stopped working properly. I was using the « kbd » for the keyboard and evdev for the mouse (so I can get all 12 buttons.. yes 12 buttons). On Xorg 7.0 I had most of the stuff working, except for some buttons on the keyboard which just refused to work properly. After upgrading, all hell broke loose. And it too me a while to find out why.
