Here you go:

Section "ServerFlags"
  Option        "AllowMouseOpenFail"
EndSection

No idea what this does, but my Ifeel USB optical mouse works great.

Section "InputDevice"
  Driver        "mouse"
  Identifier    "Mouse[1]"
  Option        "Device"        "/dev/pointer0"
  Option        "InputFashion"          "Mouse"
  Option        "Name"          "Autodetection"
  Option        "Protocol"      "imps/2"
  Option        "Vendor"        "Sysp"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
  Identifier    "Layout[all]"
  InputDevice   "Keyboard[0]"   "CoreKeyboard"
  InputDevice   "Mouse[1]"      "CorePointer"
  Option        "Xinerama"      "off"
  Screen        "Screen[0]"
EndSection

Hope that helps!
