 12	  Say Y here if you have any input device (mouse, keyboard, tablet,
 13	  joystick, steering wheel ...) connected to your system and want
 14	  it to be available to applications. This includes standard PS/2
 15	  keyboard and mouse.

 31	  Say Y here if you have memoryless force-feedback input device
 32	  such as Logitech WingMan Force 3D, ThrustMaster FireStorm Dual
 33	  Power 2, or similar. You will also need to enable hardware-specific
 34	  driver.

 44	  Say Y here if you are using a driver for an input
 45	  device that periodically polls hardware state. This

140	help
141	  Say Y here if you have a problem with the input subsystem and
142	  want all events (keypresses, mouse movements), to be output to
143	  the system log. While this is useful for debugging, it's also
144	  a security threat - your keypresses include your passwords, of
