Where did you come to that conclusion? Note that xorg.conf(5) says The config file may have multiple InputDevice sections. Recent X servers employ HAL or udev backends for input device enumeration and input hotplugging. It is usually not necessary to provide InputDevice sections in the xorg.conf if hotplugging is in use. If hotplugging is enabled, InputDevice sections using the mouse, kbd and vmmouse driver will be ignored.
