Keyboard error message on start-up

[alupu at verizon.net]

Hello,

In my Xorg-7.6 log, there's always an error line,
"Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600: failed to initialize for relative axes."

Otherwise, everything else is close to perfect.
Actually, this is not even an annoyance.
More like something I'd rather not have in my log, for cosmetic reasons.

I'm almost ashamed to say, we're talking about a low-end, $15
Microsoft ANB-00001 Black 104 Normal Keys USB Wired Slim Keyboard 600
with 104 "normal" keys.
Obviously, not even worth a "WW", let alone an "EE".

The relevant lines in 'xorg.conf' are,

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Keyboard0"
        Driver          "kbd"
        Option          "Autorepeat" "250 30"

I played with Options like "IgnoreRelativeAxes" and/or "IgnoreAbsoluteAxes"
but I haven't been able to get rid of the pesky EE line
(BTW, evdev module version is 2.5.0, keyboard 1.5.0 and Udev 165).

Any helpful comments will be highly appreciated,
-- Alex
