This post isn't terribly clear about what works specifically, but the title matches my issue exactly so perhaps this will help someone.

I had apt upgraded, and while the box booted to the lightdm login screen, keyboard and mouse were non-responsive (laptop internal, also I tried plugging in usb). After a time the cursor in the password field stopped blinking as well.

It appears some X packages had been incorrectly deleted when i ran an apt autoremove (necessary due to a full /boot drive).

re-installing apt install xserver-xorg-input-all fixed the issue for me.

(to install this, boot into recovery mode, enable networking, and drop into the root shell. When completed, reboot.)
