Nothing, but "-sharevts" is needed. Same for faketty
if I don't specify "vtX" on the parameter line and use
 Option "Device" "/dev/fttyN" instead.

But some bug may still exist in the X evdev driver
as hungarian layout doesn't work correctly.
E.g. Option "XkbModel" "pc105" makes RightAlt
behave as Enter and without it (e.g. working as pc104),
my i-acute button doesn't work.

So, XOrg is only starting to get there, I switched
back to faketty for now.
