[SOLVED] LXDM unresponsive to keyboard/mouse clicks

I updated my machine last night and turned it off. Until I turned it back on again just now.

LXDM freezes without any response to any keyboard or mouse clicks.

I can use the keyboard soon after booting for example to enter the BIOS screen. But once it is at the login manager I can't do anything. Even Alt+F1/2/3/4 do not work.

Any ideas please?

It turned out from /var/log/Xorg.0.log that libinput was corrupt. I replaced the .so file and everything is okay.

where did you get the .so file, from source, or using pacman to remove and then re-install?
