> 1. Interference with vt (PR/220562)

The patch for bug 220562 is included in this patch according to the list of
changes (see comment #75).

> 2. It attached both legacy and evdev drivers to input devices if kernel was

I believe it's still true: for instance, it tries to attach the external
keyboard through evdev, ukdb and kbdmux (I only have xf86-input-libinput
installed).

> I never tried modesetting driver and GLAMOR which are claimed to be a major

I'm using xf86-video-modesetting and Glamor when I use the i915 GPU on my
laptop and it's working great so far.

Could you please point us to those patches?
