First, this problem seems to come and go. And Xorg.0.log doesn't provide any information

This requires me to do a hard reboot, which I would like to try to avoid. Also, for some reason, after the last time I did a hard reboot, it seems to take X forever to start. I start X this way:
$ startx &
Before my last hard reboot, it would start instantly, now it takes probably half a minute.
---Edit---
No changes had been made to the configurations, and there has been no updates.

What is exactly the problem?
Because my girlfriend and I have experienced some sudden crashes where the keyboard is locked, the pointer moves slow and the music becomes 'framed', don't know if it's the same thing you have.
We are currently trying the previous version of xorg-server to see if the problem was there, I'll report.

Encountered the problem again, which reminded me of this thread.
Anyway, If it wasn't clear, the modules for the mouse and keyboard are unloaded. So all of a sudden I won't be able to move the mouse or type anything with my keyboard. CPU usage will hover around 0, everything else works fine. The display is the same, music is still going, et cetera.

I guess you are having problems with your configuration. Why don't you try with minimal xorg.conf : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … uring_xorg
Offline
then no modules are loaded for the mouse and keyboard. That is, the problem is there right away. I don't know any way to recreate the issue. Sometimes it just happens, but it'll take a few hours to occur. It's never right away or within the first few minutes or even first hour of use.
---Edit---
Of course the moment I say that, it happens 10 minutes after boot...
Either way, it doesn't seem to happen at a specific time or when I do something specifically. At first I thought it was because I left my desktop, and for some reason they were getting unloaded due to inactivity (not sure what the reasoning was behind that). However, recently they've unloaded while in use.

Do you have your mouse and keyboard plugged into a USB hub? If the hub loses power they will (obviously) get disconnected. I used to plug mine into a hub-in-monitor like Dell makes, and every time my monitor went into power-save this happened.
Offline
Is there a particular reason you aren't using input hotplugging? If it is losing the connection then HAL should be able to reload it.
Offline
No, not going through a hub.
Hotplugging never seemed to work. Don't I just have to start hal and then startx? Additionally, I've never really been a fan of hal. So if I can avoid it altogether, that would be great.

I am having this same problem but for me it is when I start the system up the keyboard is recognized but then after it gets to the kde login the keyboard takes forever to do any thing and the mouse moves very slowly. This did not happen for me until I upgraded xorg-server to 1.6.1.
