I don't think so: xorg 1.6.5, with xinput-evdev 2.2.5. They are both 
latest or second latest stable versions.

In the log I see this:
(--) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: touchpad found
(II) PS/2 Generic Mouse: Device reopened after 1 attempts.
(EE) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: device key_bitmask has changed
(EE) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: Device has changed - disabling.

Quite a few people seem to have the same problem.
