I can confirm this behavior after an upgrade from Kubuntu 8.04 to 8.10. kdm.log said "(EE) config/hal: couldn't initialise context: (null) ((null))" which lead me to the conclusion that kdm started before hal. Indeed, in /etc/rc2.d, scripts are S20kdm and S24hal. So i moved S20kdm to S25kdm, and everything is fine now, keyboard and mouse working as intended when kdm starts. I suppose the problem with gdm in Intrepid is similar.
