INPUT — Generic input layer (needed for keyboard, mouse, ...)

Say yes here if you have any input device (mouse, keyboard, tablet, joystick, steering wheel ...) connected to your system and want it to be available to applications. This includes a standard PS/2 keyboard and mouse.

Say no here if you have a headless (no monitor, no keyboard) system.

More information is available in the file Documentation/input/input.txt.
