OK, so I'll just delete the mouse and kbd stuff...So It's giving me this error: (II) Cannot locate a core pointer device. (II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device. (II) The server relies on HAL to provide the list of input devices. If no devices become available, reconfigure HAL or disable AllowEmptyInput. Below, maybe you can whittle down my xorg.conf to what I still needs. Hours do not give me anything. A scant xorg.conf file that works is best for me....(?).
