I have done alot of upgrades lately, including an emerge -uDvaN world
.  When I got home after leaving this to run, the machine started up,
but in gdm no keyboard or mouse input is happening.  So I did the
following:

  1.  put evdev into the INPUT_DEVICES section of /etc/make.conf
  2.  installed xf8-input-evdev
  3.  re-emerged xorg-server
  4.  compiled a 2.6.30 kernel and re-emerged nvidia-drivers
  5.  rebooted.

The same is happening.  No mouse, no keyboard, with gdm. I cannot boot
into Xorg with startx from single user mode.

Can anyone suggest how to go about troubleshooting this?

Alan
