Thank you for the bugreport. And good to hear that you succeeded with 
your hacking :-)

Another interim workaround to this issue is to replace INPUT in 
Default.cfg with explicitly loading modules for needed input devices.


This issue has been reported already as bugreport #443821 - as you 
acknowledge in subject. It is generally better to add additional info 
and patches to existing bugreports than to open new bugreports about 
same issue. You would do that by sending emails to e.g. 
443821 at bugs.debian.org . But no problem - I now merge the two 
bugreports.

Also, it seems that your patch is done against plain ypstream yaird 
without the many other patches already applied to the package in Debian, 
and duplicating some of them.

But thanks anyway. I'll extract the relevant parts and have a look at 
it.

Thanks. I fork this as a separate issue.


Kind regards,

Jonas
