[Bug 659793] Re: xserver-xephyr: Couldn't find keyboard driver evdev
Ubuntu 14.04 and this Bug is still active.
Simply adding the Patch above and recompiling via dpkg-buildpackage works, no need to manually running configure.
** Patch added: "enabling evdev in xserver-xephyr"

Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xephyr
When starting Xephyr with the following command line:
Xephyr :5 -ac -screen 1280x1024 -mouse evdev,,device=/dev/input/by-id
/usb-04d9_0499-event-mouse -keybd evdev,,device=/dev/input/by-id/usb-

kbd,xkbrules=xorg,xkbmodel=evdev,xkblayout=de,xkbvariant=nodeadkeys,xkboptions="lv3:ralt_switch,compose:caps"
-dpi 100
The following messages are printed on the console:
[dix] Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic, removing from list!
Kbd option key (compose:caps) of value ((null)) not assigned!
Couldn't find pointer driver evdev
Couldn't find keyboard driver evdev
The keyboard and mouse are not working.
When downgrading xserver-xephyr to version 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7, the error
messages about evdev don't appear and keyboard and mouse work as
expected.
