It handles plugging in or removing my wireless mouse just fine. It even manages to handle plugging in the wireless mouse after starting X. On my Toshiba laptop, I have: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection to handle the build-in touch-pad. I can still plug a wireless mouse in after booting and it does not have a problem - both the mouse and the touch-pad work. So you may want to remove the mouse section, and see how things work that way. You may also want to check your BIOS setting to see if it is set to disable the laptop mouse when you plug another mouse in. Because one thing that I have notices sometimes bothers X is when you change the mouse type after you have started the X server. Adding or removing a mouse is fine, but changing the protocol the mouse uses is not. (Sometimes a problem when using KVM switches.)
