Well, a compile time option isn't that nice as you usually can run the

Yep, I think that's another issue that on i386 the X-Server might try to

kernels without /proc/bus/pci, which is pre-2.4 (or even pre-2.2?)).

Hmm, in 2.6 that doesn't exist any more, probably due to the linux input
layer changes. How this is called from userspace, is this some ioctl?
