These are normal messages.  (II)nformation, not (EE)rror.

even though the mouse and keyboard both work now.

Just wanted to emphasize that.

To make sure that it was the most recent log file, I deleted all the Xorg logs, restarted it, and read the most recent one. And it still contains those lines with the working mouse and keyboard.

Add the following to your X11 config and see what you come up with.

Section "ServerFlags"
       option  "AutoAddDevices"        "off"
       option  "AllowEmptyInput"       "off"
EndSection

Why? Several months ago, these were used to work around bugs. Shortly afterwards, the bugs were fixed. Now the use of those options is causing problems more often than solving them.

The time to add those options is when xorg doesn't work without them.
