Hello,
After rebuilding the kernel a few times I was able to get gpm to work, I originally wasn't getting any /dev/input/mouse0 but realized I hadn't had it enabled in the kernel. It's working now but I am not getting any input in X. I had it working in a previous install. Now no input from the mouse or keyboard. I can't even alt, ctl, F1, F2 to switch to vtty. I assume it's maybe a libinput issue or I need to rebuild X... Does anyone have any input? pun intended.

Anathonous,

Pastebin the output of
Code:
emerge --info
so we can see your settings and the content of Xorg.0.log as the last attempt to start Xorg left it.
The location of Xorg.0.log varies depending on hov you start Xorg.

I have resolved the issue now, i needed to rebuild xorg-drivers with libinput and udev.
