David, First, thanks for filing your own bug, instead of keeping cluttering an unrelated report.

Do things work better if you disable/uninstall mouseemu? From a quick look at its sources, it looks like mouseemu never sends EV_SYN events to the kernel for its keyboard device, and the evdev X driver expects those before it sends any events to the X server. I'm not sure which is buggy here. mouseemu does ioctl(ui_mouse_fd, UI_SET_EVBIT, EV_SYN); but it does no such thing for its kbd device, so maybe xf86-input-evdev should test this bit instead of unconditionally waiting for EV_SYN. Peter? Cheers, Julien
