As I understand it, hotplug has been replaced by udev.
But now hotplugging the USB mouse into my laptop no longer works.
What am I doing wrong? Do I need to manually to add the
USB mouse as an input device in xorg.conf? Didn't have to
do that in Hoary/Breezy/etc.
$ cat /etc/issue

Hotplugging the USB mouse is detected by the kernel and udevmonitor,
but the mouse has no effect on the X11 pointer.
