Udev / xorg problem

After an update (and maybe some of my tweaking) my working xorg system stopped to work. Mice and keyboard are not detected. I think it may have something to do with udev, because of the errors in xorg log file:


(II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device


SynapticsTouchpad The /dev/input/event* device nodes seem to be missing
..
(--) Synaptics Touchpad: no supported touchpad found
(EE) SynapticsTouchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "SynapticsTouchpad"

I'm using HAL to autodetect the devices, and before it was working fine. I didn't change xorg.conf or hal policy files.

The /dev/input directory contains only two files: mice and mouse0, no directories.
When I do cat on any of the two files as a regular or root user and use the touchpad, then there is nothing outputted to the screen.


Anyone knows how to deal with such a situation?


Thanks,
Matt
