I posted this duplicate of this problem Bug #508386 , so thanks to Dave Lentz for his xorg tip as that allowed me to login by getting my keyboard to work. I had to modify his xorg.conf for my devices and I have attached this just in case someone needs a tip. When you click away the message and then log in it does come back once more. Click though that and things are almost back to normal.

service hal start
hal start/running, process 10995

Yes they are.
Can I assume usb disks are not being mounted automatically for example could be due to this? This has worked on every prior version prior to this with the same kit.
