  To troubleshoot your problem more information would help.

  What is the output of

  dpkg -l xserver-xorg* |grep ^i

This happened to me when I used the DAILY SNAPSHOT to install Debian a
month ago.
And this is what fixed it:

 These are needed to provide the modules that your log shows do not

I also needed to install my xserver-xorg-video-driver package.

This is where I'd start; I'd see if I could fix the kbd and mouse issue.
Google returned a hit at

http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=8510sid=2796a3ae02b988a9a8ef71fee66b3906

which suggested (between the lines) modprobe mouse for the mouse problem.

Another hit I found indicated a problem with udev (not being installed).

Try cat /dev/mousedevice, where mousedevice is the device file for
your mouse connection, such as /dev/input/mice, etc and then move your
mouse around. You should see a lot of ASCII garbage show up on the
screen. (Ctrl-C to stop the cat.) This will verify if your mouse is
being seen by the system.

Also, does lspci report your video card to be on 1:0:0?

Well, you can see there are three errors right there.  If you look in
the config file, you see...


Here is the xorg.conf file:
...
Section InputDevice
Identifier  Generic Keyboard
Driver  kbd
Option  CoreKeyboard
Option  XkbRules  xorg
Option  XkbModel  pc104
Option  XkbLayout us
EndSection

Section InputDevice
Identifier  Configured Mouse
Driver  mouse
Option  CorePointer
Option  Device/dev/psaux
Option  Protocol  PS/2
EndSection


Notice the kdb and mouse drivers.  On my system, the config file
has keyboard instead of kbd, and I don't know about mouse, but I
use evdev (lets you use more buttons, etc).  Try switching to
keyboard and evdev and see if that helps.  (Should probably
comment out the Protocol PS/2 line too.)

What packages do you have installed related to xorg.  You will need at
least xserver-xorg-input-kbd and xserver-xorg-input-mouse,

xserver-xorg depends on some or all of xserver-xorg-input-*

These are needed to provide the modules that your log shows do not
exist.

Good luck.

Doug.
