I completely forgot there was still an open bug about this ...
I can assert that the "(EE) PreInit returned NULL" problem magically
disappeared after the last edgy evdev upload. I can happily plug and unplug the
mouse whenever I want and it will work with all buttons working.
I use the triple vendor, product, version to detect the device
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "MS Intellimouse"
Driver "evdev"
Option "SendCoreEvents"
#Option "Phys" "usb-*/input0"
#Option "Device"
"/dev/input/by-id/usb-Microsoft_Microsoft_IntelliMouse_Explorer-event-mouse"
#Option "Device" "/dev/input/event1"
#Option "Name" "*Microsoft IntelliMouse*"
Option "vendor" "1118"
Option "product" "149"
Option "version" "1049"
Option "Resolution" "800"
EndSection
