Is udev all set up correctly on the bad system? In particular, your
input devices need to have ID_INPUT and ID_INPUT_{MOUSE|KEYBOARD} set
in the environment. Try running "udevadm info --query=all
--name=/dev/input/whatever". You can look in /proc/bus/input/devices
to see what device node you should be looking at.
Do you have /etc/X11/xorg.conf on either system? Could you post the
full log on the failing system? Also -logverbose 5 (up to 10) will put
some extra info in the log.
