[SOLVED] Keyboard and Mouse not working in KDE 4.1

I just installed Arch64 with KDE 4.1 on my laptop (Compaq Presario F767NR). The keyboard and mouse work fine in command line but in the Xorg console, CTRL+ALT+F7, I cannot use my keyboard or mouse so I am stuck at the KDE 4.1 login screen. I configured my xorg config file with "nvidia-xconfig --composite"...does anyone have any ideas?

Re: [SOLVED] Keyboard and Mouse not working in KDE 4.1

Got hold of tony through mail, the problem is that "pacman -S kdm" doesnt install all the xorg stuff *duh* so you will have to do "pacman -S xorg" and it will work fine after that
