I'm having another problem that I don't know if it's related or not but the
mdev -s is not setting the permissions for /dev/input/event* properly. In my
mdev.conf I have the line:
event.*         root:root 666 =input/ @chmod 

but the permissions are:
total 0
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root             0 Feb  2 21:08 .
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root             0 Feb  2 21:08 ..
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  64 Feb  2 21:08 event0
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  65 Feb  2 21:08 event1
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  66 Feb  2 21:08 event2
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  67 Feb  2 21:08 event3

even if I change the line to:
event.*         root:games @chmod 666 $MDEV

run:
mdev -s

It's still:
total 0
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root             0 Feb  2 21:08 .
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root             0 Feb  2 21:08 ..
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  64 Feb  2 21:08 event0
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  65 Feb  2 21:08 event1
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  66 Feb  2 21:08 event2
crw-rw----    1 root     root       13,  67 Feb  2 21:08 event3
no change to group or permissions.

I am using a chmod in my startup script but mdev -s will revert it back to the
wrong permissions if it ever gets run.
