I assume you are referring to:
20090216:
xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not
yet work with USB2. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then
add
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
to your ServerLayout section. This will cause X to use the configured
kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf.
When I tried without hald, that meant hald disabled, moused running
and the above option in xorg.conf. It did not work. However, contrary
to my interpretation of the above, running *with* hald and with moused
disabled works equally "well" (but the problem remains).
Running with the above option, moused enabled *and* hald enabled,
yields the same effect.
Just to be sure I took the freshly generated (Xorg -configure) conf,
plus the above AllowEmptyInput option, did a fresh reboot of the
system and started x - the problem remains.
