remove this "InputDevice" and "mouse1" on ServerLayout 

my xorg.conf is /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        Option      "DontZap" "false"
        Option      "DontZoom" "false"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "intel"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection
