Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
During upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 my xorg.conf was modified without asking
me for confirmation. All "InputDevice" lines and "InputDevice" sections
have been commented out ("# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now
used"). It completely broke my multi-seat setup as all input devices
(keyboards, mice, tablet) have been captured by the first X server.
I fixed the problem manually by restoring the old config and then adding
'Option "AutoAddDevices" "off"' to each "ServerLayout" section.
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
