After upgrade from lenny to wheezy keyboard and mouse don't work in X (keyboard available before it starts). I looked over internet about this issue and found some solutions:

  1. remove xorg.conf (http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=62880)
  2. update udev and base-files (http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=64927&p=376136#p376136)
  3. remove /run directory (http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=64927&p=376136#p376136)
  4. reintall xserver and xorg

But, nothing helped me :( Logs of X-server haven't got any messages about keyboard or mouse errors.

Below you can see configuration of my system:

ii  udev 172-1 /dev/ and hotplug management daemon

krestyaninov@xxx# dpkg -l |grep base-files

krestyaninov@xxx# dpkg -l |grep xorg

The problem was that X server don't use udev devices and subtle hinted me on it in log:

(II) The server relies on udev to provide the list of input devices.
If no devices become available, reconfigure udev or disable AutoAddDevices.

So, when I pay my attention on these lines and add

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf problem was solved!

P.S. Thanks to Kubuntu Wiki for info about KDE intput system! :)
