Hi, you can delete xorg.conf , all confs are now autodetect ,
Driver      "kbd"
and 
Driver      "mouse" are deprecated. 

my xorg.conf, just change for my specifics , and not default options:   

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0              
       Option "DontZap"  "false"                  
       Option "DontZoom"  "false"                 
EndSection                                        

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Synaptics"
        Driver      "synaptics"
     Option "TapButton1" "1"                  
     Option "TapButton2" "1"                  
     Option "TapButton3" "1"                  
     Option "VertEdgeScroll" "true"           
#    Option "SpecialScrollAreaRight" "true"  
EndSection                                    


Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
#   Driver "vesa"
        Driver      "intel"
#    Option "AccelMethod" "exa"
#    Option "XvMC" "true"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection
