I updated meanwhile to 7.2, but the result stayed the same.

One list on top, the other on bottom. It is geting confusing.

I also just tried yours. The same result.

I changed it.

The mouse cursor is visible but I cannot move the mouse cursor.

If I remove the mouse definition, X starts normally allowing me to use 
the mouse again.

Te machine is a Fujitsu P2120. The mouse is the built-in trackpoint.

Here is the log file without the mouse being in xorg.conf:

# This is the log file when X is started without the mouse definition in 
xorg.conf.

# All other lines are removed.
