I wrote /etc/X11/xorg.conf as follows.

(snip)
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc106"
Option "XkbLayout" "jp"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Protocol" "osmouse"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
(snip)


However, the mouse pointer is on the Left-side of window, and mouse click does not work.

I checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log as follows.

(snip)
(**) Option "CoreKeyboard"
(**) Generic Keyboard: Core Keyboard
(**) Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
(**) Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
(**) Generic Keyboard: XkbRules: "xorg"
(**) Option "XkbModel" "pc106"
(**) Generic Keyboard: XkbModel: "pc106"
(**) Option "XkbLayout" "jp"
(**) Generic Keyboard: XkbLayout: "jp"
(**) Option "CustomKeycodes" "off"
(**) Generic Keyboard: CustomKeycodes disabled
(**) Option "Protocol" "osmouse"
(**) Configured Mouse: Protocol: osmouse
(**) Option "CorePointer"
(**) Configured Mouse: Core Pointer
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
(**) Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
(**) Configured Mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50
(**) Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
(**) Configured Mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) Configured Mouse: Buttons: 9

The log ends with keymap, and is not described by the mouse that should
continue like follows

(II) Configured Mouse: osmouseEnableDataReporting: succeeded
    xkb_types                { include "%" };
    xkb_compatibility        { include "%" };
    xkb_symbols              { include "%" };
    xkb_geometry             { include "%" };


So, I thought that mouse setting was wrong.
