Thanks, I was not aware of this section type which seems to be definitively=
 the way to go.

It is indeed working with hal based configuration (after removing the bits =
from hal config), but not so much with the devd backend.

First of all, with a quite bare configuration file (no ServerFlags options)=
, I do have the following messages in log file:
[  8342.054] (=3D=3D) Not automatically adding devices
[  8342.054] (=3D=3D) Not automatically enabling devices

Strangely, keyboard and mouse are added, with default settings,
ignoring InputClass settings. If I force AutoAddDevices and
AutoEnableDevices, these messages are switched to confirm devices will be s=
earched and enabled... Except that I don't have keyboard/mouse in this case.

If it can help, here's my xorg.conf :
