yes - unfortunately that seems to be the only form of man page that 
exists on the linux side as well.  did a quick search through the linux 
source and there is unsurprisingly a lack of coherent documentation for 
the evdev driver there (there is plenty online - wikipedia is a decent 
starting place).

getting a man page is a pretty high priority and should hopefully get 
sorted out before 12.1-RELEASE is ready...so the system works? lol
