Using AEI sometimes causes problems with input, like not accepting 
keyboard input until the mouse is moved.  It's not meant to disable hal 
input device detection anyway.  So remove that AEI option.

If you want to disable hal for X input device detection, use
   Option "AutoAddDevices" "off"

But you are running hal, so you could just use it as intended.  See the 
Handbook for setting keyboard type and layout.
