11 OK, so I'll just delete the mouse and kbd stuff...So It's giving me this
12 error:
13
14
15
16
17 (II) Cannot locate a core pointer device.
18
19 (II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device.
20
21 (II) The server relies on HAL to provide the list of input devices.
22
23 If no devices become available, reconfigure HAL or disable
24 AllowEmptyInput.

28 Below, maybe you can whittle down my xorg.conf to what I still needs.
