This cannot be made to work reliably. Some factoids: - Internal devices may be connected via USB. - The ACPI spec provides the _PLD (Physical location of device) hook to determine how is an USB device connected, with an anecdotal success rate. Internal devices may be seen as external and vice-versa, there is also an "unknown" value that is widely used. - There may be non-USB keyboards, the old "AT Translated Set 2 Keyboard" interface does not change on hotplugging. - Libinput has an internal series of quirks to classify keyboards as internal of external, also with an "unknown" value. These heuristics are kinda hopeless to get right by our own hand. Drop this external keyboard detection in the hope that there will be something more deterministic to rely on in the future (e.g. the libinput quirks made available to us directly or indirectly).

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

The coding style used is primarily the GNU flavor of the GNOME coding
style
with some minor additions such as preferring stdint.h types over GLib
fundamental types, and a soft 80 character line limit. However, in general,
look at the file you're editing for inspiration.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. We require an URL to either an issue or a merge request in each commit.
