Keyboard and mouse stopped being recognized by Xwindows, then installed evdev

The strangest thing, all of a sudden, any keyboard and mouse stopped being recognized in X. They show up with lsusb:

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:c077 Logitech, Inc. M105 Optical Mouse
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0b95:1790 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88179 Gigabit Ethernet
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

But, when I check in the X log, I see:

[ 28.818] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Logitech USB Optical Mouse (/dev/input/mouse0)
[ 28.818] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
[ 28.818] (II) This device may have been added with another device file.

Alt-Ctrl-F3 does nothing.

However, if I use an app I wrote that looks for a keyboard, I can detect keypresses no problem. So they keyboard is recognized by the OS and works. Just not through X.

Somehow X has just stopped loading a driver when something is installed yet I have literally changed nothing in the software or setup.

I then installed ‘evdev’ and the mouse started working. I have no idea what could cause this to happen. Do we use ‘evdev’ normally as our driver source for Xwindows on the orin?

Sorry for the late response.
Is this still an issue to support? Any result can be shared?
