Hi there.  I'm a complete novice but have resolved a similar problem I
had; so I wanted to share in case it helps someone else.  I recently
made a clean install of 10.04LTS on a Dell Inspiron 2650.  Even during
the install my trackpad and keyboard did not work, I had to use a USB
mouse and keyboard.  After install the problem persisted.  I looked at
my xorg.conf because it was mentioned here or in another forum and this
is all it contained:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        DefaultDepth    24
        Option  "AddARGBGLXVisuals"     "True"
EndSection

Section "Module"
        Load    "glx"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Default Device"
        Driver  "nvidia"
        Option  "NoLogo"        "True"
EndSection

It seems to me that the generation of this file was botched.  I installed the 
NVidia restricted drivers, then went to
System->Administration->X Server Settings->X Server Display Configuration->Save 
to X Configuration File
I received a message saying it could not parse the current file but gave me the 
option to preview what the restricted driver had generated.  I copied the 
preview and generated a new xorg.conf.  After two reboots the problem was 
solved.
The attached file is what my xorg.conf now reads.
