: This is bullshit.  Please do not break PS/2 because of USB.
: Please fix USB to attach instead.

Every time this has come up over the past N years, people suggest
that.  No one has done the work to do that.  There will come a time
when the default is changed after the install and we really need a
many to one mux in the kernel to replace the current 1 to 1 mux that
we have.  People looking to be heros can send it to me for a review
and committal. :-)
