That part was Bruce's choice. All I did was change text which had been copied from the evdev driver and then missed, and one real typo in the name. Over the years we've had several packages where I disagree with what we call them, but I usually leave the choice to whoever introduces them. Actually, in that hunk above I intended to change the Begin comment to just 'Xorg Libevdev' without 'Driver' but I forgot that part. Whatever, the comment will not now let people think this is evdev, and the libevdev rendered text is consistent. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
