Thanks Peter.

I added the Option and now I have no keyboard and no mouse.

Looking at the Xorg.0.log this seems to be explained in these lines:

(II) LoadModule: "mouse"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module mouse
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(EE) Failed to load module "mouse" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) No input driver matching `mouse'
(II) LoadModule: "kbd"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module kbd
(II) UnloadModule: "kbd"
(EE) Failed to load module "kbd" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) No input driver matching `kbd'

Now, either the driver names have changed or I have a problem in my 
installation.

Full xorg.log is attached.

Thanks

Michael
