Fix mouse settings not being loaded when a mouse is connected

ivan tkachenko requested to merge work/ratijas/mice into master

Keyboard daemon was calling into the wrong module name. There are only so much kcminit modules, and all of them are required to be named and referenced with a "kcm_" prefix.

Postmortem:

  • Mouse settings' saving and loading worked fine.
  • Changing settings on the fly worked fine, and if they were not loaded before due to this bug, KCM loaded them and applied, after which mouse worked fine until disconnected.
  • Starting computer with mouse already connected worked fine.
  • Plug&Play (i.e. connecting mouse after session has started) was the only thing that was broken, because this reconfiguration failed to launch the proper mouse module.
