help with x server

Hi....

I am having trouble using my mouse and keyboard with kdm/gdm. No input
from two is recognized and now I cant even get kdm/gdm to start when I
type startx. Im using woody with kernel 2.2.20 , nvidia geforce2 mx 400 video
card, logitech wheel USB mouse (2 buttons and the scroller ).

Here are parts of the error from the log file and also parts from my
xf86config-4 file. Im not sure if I need to paste the entire files here.

please advise. thanks
