[...] in X. setxkbmap(1) needs a device id as an argument, and I'm

I have given up on this issue for a while, I'm back at it now. In man
xorg.conf, in the InputDevice section, I read:
Option "Floating" "boolean"
When enabled, the input device is set up floating and
does not
report events through any master device or control a
cursor. The
device is only available to clients using the X Input
Extension
API. This option is disabled by default. The options
CorePointer, CoreKeyboard, AlwaysCore, and
SendCoreEvents, are
the inverse of option Floating (i.e. SendCoreEvents "on" is
equivalent to Floating "off" ).
Does that mean that if a device has this option on, an additional entry
will be visible in the output of xinput (as a command)?
