No ..
Run a "locate xorg.conf" to see what "xorg.conf" file is beign used to run 
gnome ..
Check under /usr/local/etc/X11 to see if there's xorg.conf ..
If you are running gnome .. _there_has_to_be_ a xorg.conf file somewhere ...
Find that file a do your edits in there.

And BTW .. the code I passed on to you, are just the sections regarding the 
mouse and the serverlayout configuration part of the whole xorg.conf file .. 
Your not gonna do much with it alone .. you still need the complete xorg.conf 
file ..
