xorg input problems

Hello, I have a little problem with my frontend, is a Debian Wheezy
HTPC. When I make a software upgrade I lose the mouse and keyboard.

Sometimes I edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get it working, but I can
not remember the changes. This is my xorg configuration:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

# generated from default
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

# generated from default
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Remote"
Option "Ignore" "True"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Unknown"
ModelName "Unknown"
HorizSync 28.0 - 33.0
VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection

How could I fix this? I will appreciate any help.

Thanks and best regards.

most modern implementations don't need an xorg.conf as automagic
probing has been good for a while now.

mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup

and restart X.

Thanks Nick, I try it but it does not start the X, I reboot the
machine and it stop on a black screen.

Thanks anyway. Anyone with latest nvidia drivers? (302.07)

Thanks and best regards.

Try making a bare minimal xorg.conf with nvidia-xconfig

Also if your X is not starting, look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log

What does your xorg log file say?
Try "grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log", which should show you the errors X
had when loading.

Have you made sure that the Nouveau drivers are not being loaded?

Yes, nvidia installer do it for me:

# cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf
# generated by nvidia-installer
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

It might be better to check by using lsmod just to make sure that
something isn't loading them. If that isn't it, and there aren't any
errors in your Xorg.0.log file, I'm at a loss.

There is any nouveau module:

# lsmod | grep nouveau

Now it is working great.

Best regards.
