Bug Description
After an upgrade to the 2.6.15 kernel the laptop's touchpad stopped behaving as
configured in xorg.conf.
Someone in the laptop-testing-team mailing list pointed to the solution that is
loading the evdev kernel module during startup by adding evdev to the
/etc/modules file.
This fixed the problem but evdev should be loaded automatically, maybe by
including that module in the /etc/modules file in the package.
