Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-core

After an upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04 X had support for neither the mouse,
nor the keyboard.

Removing my previous xorg.conf did not help.

Adding the following brought back the mouse, but not the keyboard:

Section "ServerFlags"
        Option          "AllowEmptyInput" "off"
EndSection

It complained about a non-existing "kbd" driver (... and indeed, there
was no kbd_drv.so module to be found, no keyboard_drv.so)

Adding the following addressed the issue (but is not pretty, as
presumably a different event queue number might be needed for different
machines, or even the same machine after further upgrades);

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "evdev"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xorg"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
        Option          "Device"        "/dev/input/event3"
EndSection
