I'll give it a try tonight, but I don't particularly like the solution, as this appears to be a bug. In fact, https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2008-December/msg01410.html seems to indicate that it is a bug, though I don't pretend to follow what's going on there. Looks like I'll have to spend time to understand this evdev stuff a bit better.
