USB mice have worked without hal for a long time. It's just

Well, I recently copied /etc/group.pacnew to /etc/group which didn't
have the hal and gdm groups.
HAL didn't start, and when I started KDE (xinit startkde) or GDM or
KDM, neither keyboard nor mouse worked. After adding hal group, it
worked fine, since HAL started succesfully.
But did you put it in your xorg.conf file?
What to put ?
in addition to what Ty posted there is also
