Well, that all looks in order.

So, you are able to boot and you do get a graphical login screen, but you don't get a cursor and you can't type a password.

You looked in the fedup log, located in /var/log, and see no errors.

I'm fairly sure the lack of XINPUT lines in the Xorg log is telling....just have no idea what could be the issue.

I've not had a failure in fedup such as this and I've been using it for the past several releases.
