I am not a specialist of X but I attach my XF86Config file (just a one
previously put on this list but a bit changed for new XF86 release).

Two things are important:

    a. be sure that your mouse pointer device (here /dev/psaux) is not a pointer
to /dev/gpmdata (in fact that should not happen with psaux but well with mouse)

    b. be sure that the Modes at line 395 match your screen setting (at the boot
console CO[nfiguration] MO[nitor] would display you the actual monitor set up)
Also afaik the rest of the line had to commented out or removed because
switching  does not work.

Joel
