KVM Switch or in my case I had a headless machine without keyboard, but 
sometime things happen when I needed a keyboard, so I just took the one 
from the desktop machine plugged it in to the headless machine and then 
back to the desktop, was a pita to restart X11 to be able to use the 
keyboard once again. Things was even worse on a laptop when you wanted 
to use an external keyboard... so I rather have the dependency to udev 
which I can replace with eudev.
