Description
Hello,
I did a full system reinstall (pacman -Qnq | pacman -S -) and when I booted, I could not use the mouse, touchpad nor keyboard. These worked well in the local virtual terminal (tty), but as soon as I started X (startx), they would stop working. I rebooted with 4.19.29-gnu-1-lts, and I could log-in. This also happened with a windows manager (lightdm), where the user dialog would show up, but I could not type nor move the cursor.
I am sure that you would need more information. Let me know.

Did you try re-installing the xorg-drivers group
Sounds like you are missing:
xf86-input-mouse
xf86-input-synaptics
xf86-input-keyboard
xf86-input-evdev
etc

I am now using linux-libre 5.0.5-gnu-1 . I can type and log into a GUI.
