switch 9.04 xorg.conf from evdev to kbd?

[Denis Haskin]

Can someone advise how to switch 9.04 xorg.conf keyboard device from 
evdev to the old 'kbd' (e.g. what's the whole xorg.conf stanza I have to 
put in)?

I've had progressively more and more problems with my Dell Studio 15 
keyboard; both the repeating-characters bug (which is known an 
outstanding) but also now I get extremely frequent dropped keystrokes.

I know it's not the hardware, because I dual-boot to Vista and it 
doesn't happen *at all*.

Some googling has led me to think there may be issues with the new evdev 
xorg device, so I'd like to try the old 'kbd' configuration and see if 
that makes any difference.

Thanks,

dwh
