A few additions/comments, if you don't mind


I usually only have AutoAddDevices. AFAIK, AllowEmptyInput is not necessary. man xorg.conf:
Quote:
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "boolean"
If enabled, don't add the standard keyboard and mouse drivers,
if there are no input devices in the config file. Enabled by
default if AutoAddDevices and AutoEnableDevices is enabled, oth-
erwise disabled.
If AllowEmptyInput is on, devices using the
kbd, mouse or vmmouse driver are ignored.

Users may also have to enable/start the mouse daemon if they haven't already done so during/after the setup:

Finally, you may add -nolisten tcp to xinit if you don't need remote access to X.
You may also add an alias to your shell's rc file to save some typing:
Code:
alias xinit xinit -- -dpi 75 -nolisten tcp
