Nope. Does not work here:

$ lsinput
protocol version mismatch (expected 65536, got 65537)

It would be much more helpful if you tried to test what has been fixed
(hint: version change wasn't it).

It would be much more helpful if you would revert that which was broken
in 2.6.36.  (hint: version was part of it).

No, version change will not be reverted as we do not have a way to
validate whether new ioctls are supported. The older kernels are
returning -EINVAL for unknown evdev ioctls so userspace can't know
if ioctl failed because it is unsupported or because arguments are
wrong/not applicable for the underlying device.

The other part does indeed appear to work with the old binary for input-kbd,
but the binary for lsinput still fails as above.

Great, then I'' include the fix for RC keytables in my next pull
request. I guess it should go to stable as well.

Thanks.
