Here is the relevant section from my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, this is for 
PS/2 mouse and USB:

Section "InputDevice"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Identifier      "mouse"
        Option          "Protocol"      "IMPS/2"
        Option          "Device"        "/dev/psaux"
        Option "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5"

EndSection


Section "InputDevice"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Identifier      "usbmice"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option          "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Xfree 4.x works great with 2 input mouse devices.
