Description Adam Jackson 2004-08-11 10:55:14 UTC

Take UseDeprecatedKeyboardDriver into account

We probably should not generate config files that use the kbd driver, if the
server has been compiled with support for the old driver.  The only excuse to
do that would be if the platform doesn't support the new driver, and in that
case we should print out the old driver.

Thanks for this -- I was just checking into it. Also, it can probably be closed
now. See for example:
