95% of the user-reported problems with evdev are due to the user
switching himself and failing to do it properly (because switching to
evdev requires setting an awful lot of xorg parameters to "evdev", and
if you forget to change one xorg won't fail cleanly but work in a
strange hybrid buggy PS/2+evdev input mode, and users will assume this
buggy mode is evdev itself).

Just switching to evdev can fix an awful lot of multimedia key problem
reports.
