Hi,
I'm running Opensuse 12.3/64,
uname -r
3.7.10-1.16-desktop
with
X.Org X Server 1.13.2
I've attached a USB IR receiver (Streamzap).
I'm trying to keep Xorg from auto-adding the device as a KEYBOARD or
MOUSE, using udev-discovered device info.
The default Xorg evdev catchall includes
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
...
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev pointer catchall"
MatchIsPointer "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
EndSection
...
Iiuc, the override for just the Streamzap device should be
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/05-streamzap.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Ignore Streamzap KEYBOARD"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*|/dev/input/mouse*"
Driver "evdev"
MatchProduct "treamzap"
Option "Ignore" "true"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Ignore Streamzap MOUSE"
MatchIsPointer "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*|/dev/input/mouse*"
Driver "evdev"
MatchProduct "treamzap"
Option "Ignore" "true"
EndSection
but, after reboot,
dmesg | grep -i stream

Which looks like the Streamzap's ignored -- AFTER being assigned -- a
bit confusing as to what's going on.
But, a clear indication that it's not completely ignored is -- if, at
this point, I press the POWER button on the Streamzap, it immediately
powers off my desktop. Not an action that I'd intended!
How do I completely disable the adding of the Streamzap and its use by
Xorg?
