synaptics Touchpad & USB mouse together in slack 10

[mehargags]

recently installed the new Slack 10 & as all know it comes with the new X.org. the configuration below i sued is not Working with my laptop. the touchpad works Fine but when i Plug in my USB mouse ,the Light glows but it doesn't function..
can some one Suggest me how to make it Work with the New X

this worked for me earlier Fine in the xfree86:

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

then make an entry to the serverlayout

InputDevice "UsbMouse" "AlwaysCore"

am i missing something

[big_k105]

that is exactly how mine looks and my usb mouse works. i changed it so my usb mouse would work and not my touchpad. but just give it some time of playing around with you will figure it out. it took me about a hour of playing to get my usb mouse working. i kept switching between kde and gnome and it would finally work in gnome but not kde and now it works fine in flux.

just managed it somehow,,, an old freind helped me.. I used the utility X from Console in run level 3 & it makes u xorg.conf file at /<home>. I used the Same Settings entered there & it worked like a Charm.

Could you post your xorg.conf to see how you managed it?

Same problem here

May be interesting for others too, I have both working now on my Zenwalk System (Slackware based).

Here is my xorg.conf:
