No keyboard/mouse in Xbmc

[flfl]

Hello,

On a fresh install of Archlinux, I get neither mouse nor keyboard input in Xbmc, although both work fine in X.
E.g., I can start X, open a terminal, type xbmc, and then I'm stuck as it responds neither to the keyboard or mouse.
Same if I start it from the console, ssh, or using a systemd service.
My user & the xbmc user have access to /dev/input devices (mouse/kbd work fine in regular X anyway)

I had not such issue with other distros such as openelec or xbian, so I don't think it's an hardware issue.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Relevant bits of my Xorg.log below.

Please post which version you installed, was it from the foundation downloads page? And "cat /proc/version"

[flfl]

Yes, I got it from the foundation's page (archlinux-hf-2013-07-22.img.zip).
In the mean time, I upgraded all packages using pacman -Syu

OK, I see this too.

Missed this when I started using pacstrap, sorry

[flyinghappy]

So will this fix my issue, been going to troubleshoot a bit more, but if this works it will save me some time

My bluetooth mouse and keyboard work fine in XBMC, but if I leave a video playing for a long time, they stop working like they went to sleep and can't be woken up. Only happens in XBMC, if I'm in X they are fine.

[pepedog]

You might have a Bluetooth problem?

[flyinghappy]

No, it works great if I'm not in XBMC. If I let it sit overnight in openbox, they wake up fine, if I leave it sit in XBMC it's like they don't wake up.

I am starting XBMC from openbox as well.
