monitor and mouse section is missing in xorg.conf
Today I was checking my xorg.conf file. There I notice no section for monitor or mouse. I think these entries should be there. Is it normal to have xorg.conf without these infos missing? My xorg.conf output is following

If everything is working fine then there is no need to worry. Latest version of xorg uses Generic values. xorg.conf file is empty in Debian Unstable, Ubuntu 8.04 ( Its beta ) and a few more latest distros.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Sorry for re-open the thread, but my question goes in the same way.
In my Fedora 6.0 xorg.conf the mouse section is also missing.
How can I know which driver is my OS using for my mouse?.
I have downloaded the xf86-input-mouse.1.3.0 because I would like to modify the functionallity of my mouse. I have compiled and installed the driver and it creates the files:
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.la
/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input/mouse_drv.so
What need I do to use the new driver I have installed? (I suppose that including the section for this driver in xorg.conf, it's that true?).
Thank you for your answers!
