I am trying to run the default X environment, and despite mine having the evdev input driver, x seems to not be recognizing it.

You need it in addition to the evdev driver.

I did this, but it seems that the keyboard just outputs random strings into the xterm window. Anyone have a solution for this?

What's weird in that log is the kbd gets loaded for every input device. The evdev driver should get loaded. Do you have any configs in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ besides 10-evdev.conf and 10-quirks.conf that got installed with xorg-server? And did you maybe mess with those files? 10-evdev.conf should have a Driver "evdev" line in the sections for keyboards and mice.

Well, I am on a laptop, so I added a 10-synaptics.conf, for my track pad, but besides that, no. Also, in 10-evdev.conf, evdev is set as driver. I can post all the conf's up if you want.

Not to necropost, but I still need help with this. Do I need to post any additional info?

Can you give output to
setxkbmap -print -verbose 10

I get:
Setting verbose level to 10
Cannot open display "default display"

I have realized I have to type this command through X to get a solid output, but my problem is not being able to normally type anything in X. Thank you for the reply anyway

For anyone else having this problem(although it seems rare) a quick reinstall did it. Don't know why I didn't think of that before.

Maybe problem is in your 10-synaptics.conf
I solve the problem by adding this:
#touchpad settings
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Driver "synaptics"
MatchIsTouchpad "on"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
...
EndSection

stripedpage, please don't bump solved threads; particularly when your "solution" is not relevant (keyboard != touchpad).
Closing.
