after suspend to disk, my input devices "shift upwards" in /dev/input/event*, so
that i have now (after 2 or 3 suspend cycles):

(i think the ALPS was event16 before the last cycle, but am not sure).
The problems are:
- sooner or later i'll run out of input devices
- the synaptics X driver no longer finds it:

seife@strolchi:~> tail /var/log/Xorg.0.log
