Hi Ryan, thanks for opening this bug report. I'm going to attach a patch that will generate some debug messages in weston-launch about why opening the device failed. Would you be able to apply that patch and then include the output from weston-launch when running with that patch.

I can't at the moment, as the machine at which I get the bug appears to have a small spot of hardware failure. :/
Ryan, oh dear. I've also attached a patch which should allow weston to continue to start provided the seat has both a keyboard and pointer.

Laptop decided to work again! :D So, how do I apply a patch? :)
Figured out how to do it, nvm Got both patches applied, will build and test :)
Well, it works with both the patches! I'll attach the log here

I had the same problem, I am also running Arch... The patch worked(my screen is turned 90 degrees, but it works...) and I found a way to stop it from happening. You must unload the acer_wmi module with 'sudo modprobe -r acer_wmi'. That solves it for me :)
Kristian has merged a version of this patch so that we will not abort compositor creation if there is a problem opening an input device: commit f9e9d0d434e06b86d527f2b19f0d48a7539114b4 Author: Rob Bradford <rob@linux.intel.com> Date: Mon Jun 3 18:46:13 2013 +0100 udev-seat: Fail input setup only if no devices are found Rather than failing if we cannot open any single device fail the input setup if there are no input devices added. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64506
