I am not sure this is a bug.
I have a Apple keyboard connected to a IOGear USB KVM.
I have installed evdev and the Xorg 1.5.3 server.
When I use any X apps the keyboard repeats three for one in. i.e.
typing one 'L' puts three of them in the input.
I noticed when looking at /proc/bus/input/devices there are three
instanced of the keyboard.
Thanks for your help.
Fred
