[SOLVED]Mouse and keyboard acting crazy. I have to restart gdm via ssh
Here's the output from dmesg after boot.
Basically, I'm getting errors from my USB mouse and keyboard. If I wait long enough udev will find them and they'll start working. GDM starts too fast so Xorg is stuck without keyboard and mouse. I had to ssh and restart GDM then mouse and keyboard worked. For the meantime I've disabled gdm in rc.conf.
I usually see these messages from devices that are drawing too much power from the USB power bus. 
These devices work fine in the Win32 and OSX installs on the same hardware.
thanks ya'll
[EDIT]
daemons from rc.conf
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond @sshd dbus hal fam @alsa @cups @portmap @avahi-daemon @ntpd @ntpdate !gdm)Last edited by bloodniece (2009-05-21 15:32:59)

Not sure if this will help with your problem but dbus shouldn't be in the daemons array. It gets started automatically by hal.

Well, my media card reader, an internally mounted one, decided to act crazy. Unplugging it from the mobo seemed to fix it. wonder what happened, it's only 3 months old and has no moving parts
