XExtension Device

[Pascual Castellon Gadea]

Thank you for your suggestion.

I realized that configuring the Floating option in the input device 
'hotplugging' hal script, and then I remove the static configuration
in xorg.conf  it works perfectly.

Which meaning has this? is it not using the same driver as before?
