I also have a local multi-user setup like Helge and use evdev for that reason. However I didn't know about the evdev keyboard driver before and always modified the XFree86 source package with another patch for my second keyboard. I started using the evdev driver when I upgraded to X.Org. I send this followup since I noticed that the same evdev driver is in Sarges XFree86 package. Should I send a bug against xserver-xfree86 also?
Btw it is really nice that the X.Org package includes everything necessary for local multiuser X (IsolateDevice, novtswitch, sharevts, evdev). As soon as this evdev bug is fixed in the real package I won't have to rebuild the source package myself anymore. :-) regards /Pär
