My plan is to retire these two xorg input drivers in rawhide in a week or

Hello Peter,
With the software bumblebee, there seems to be a need for these packages. But I am not really sure why. I don't know if the evdev driver could work around this problem?
If the packages are not installed, then the error message one gets is:
[ 901.442296] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: XORG Failed to load module "mouse"
The solution I was told on github is to install xorg-x11-drv-mouse and xorg-x11-drv-keyboard packages. Which did indeed solve the problem in fedora 20. The xorg.conf file in this case is:
/etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia
The bumblebee developers have set
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
Should that / can that be changed do you think?
Just wanted to mention this in case other fedora users have optimus laptops they use with the nvidia drivers? bumblebee is a solution that has been invented for hybrid graphics laptops with intel and Nvidia GPUs. It runs another X server in memory and copies the visuals with software. Either with VirtualGL or primus.
Cheers,
