Newer Xorg uses a different method of configuring hardware. There are
many threads and many possible ways of addressing the problem:
1) emerge "xf86-input-evdev" and set up input devices using the new
configuration method (out of xorg.conf, into FDI files) -- this also
requires a certain kernel option to be enabled.
2) Add this option to ServerLayout section of xorg.conf: Option
"AllowEmptyInput" "false"
3) rebuild xorg-server with hal USE flag disabled
Any one of those 3 should fix the problem. The first one is the "new"
way, the others will leave you using legacy configuration methods. Use
whatever works best for you. :)
There are other possible things you may need to do depending on your
particular setup. Fancy mice or non-English keyboards especially will
need additional effort to configure the same as before. Read the
Gentoo Xorg upgrade guide for more info:
