Subject: 2.5.40 loses keyboard and mouse in X

Not sure what info is needed here - there are no error messages anywhere.

ASUS P4S533 (SiS645DX chipset)
P4 2Ghz cpu
1G PC2700 RAM
SBLive! value (using ALSA driver)
NVidia GeForce2 GTS (using XFree86 nv driver)
PS/2 Keyboard & mouse

Mandrake 9.0
XFree86 4.2.1

Boot to console & login with no problem.
Run console apps with no problem.
run startx and X appears to start normally, but keyboard and mouse
are dead.
Only thing in .xinitrc is
exec /usr/X11R6/bin/startfluxbox

No new messages in any log files.

Same thing happens with 2.5.40-ac2 & -ac4.
