Yes, it IS a problem with your mouse. The X server will refuse to start 
without any core pointer. Since your xorg.conf file says that the 
CorePointer is the mouse, and your mouse doesn't work, thus x server 
refuses to start.

QED [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q.E.D. ]

Try this:

$ startx -allowMouseOpenFail
