If you also have display :1 in use, choose a different display number.
In some cases, two or more drivers may work with one video card; the automatic
configuration is usually the best choice, but there are times when you may want to
override the configuration and choose a different driver manually.
Driver parameters may be specified in this section with Option entries (Section 3.12).
If you have a video card and don??™t know which driver to use (or you
don??™t have the right driver), use the vesa driver, which will enable
basic operation with almost any modern video card at resolutions up
to 800 ?— 600 and 16-bit color depths.

3.6 Optional Sections in the xorg.conf Configuration File 49
InputDevice
In old configuration files, you may find Keyboard and Pointer sections instead of
InputDevice sections. These section names are still recognized but may eventually be
phased out, so they should be avoided.
Our sample configuration file has two InputDevice sections:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
EndSection
There are three entries used here:
Identifier
The name of the section, so it can be referenced from a ServerLayout section or
from the -pointer and -keyboard command-line options.
