New versions of xorg.conf use hal to configure input devices. 

If you want to continue using the old method (xorg.conf) for 
input devices, you need to add this line to your xorg.conf:

Option "AllowEmptyInput" "False"

The X will continue to use your old xorg.conf settings for 
input devices. 

Else,

If you want to migrate to the new policy using hal, you need
to do this instead:

cp /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/

You might need to customize that file to suit your localization
settings or whatever.
