On my ps/2 mouse, x will not start,  Here is relevant section from my
Xorg.log:

(II) evdev brain: Rescanning devices (1).
(EE) PreInit returned NULL for "Configured Mouse"
(WW) No core pointer registered
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "evdev brain" (type: evdev brain)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Generic Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
(II) evdev brain: Rescanning devices (2).
No core pointer

Fatal server error:
failed to initialize core devices

So I would venture to guess making evdev default might not be such a
good idea at this point, until the hardware detection can detect this
and choose it over the standard 'mouse' driver
