Ok, it's what i thought, it can't find the usb mouse because it's not
plugged in.

You are going to want to comment out the "Generic Mouse" line like so. 

Section "ServerLayout"
       Identifier      "Default Layout"
       Screen          "Default Screen"
       InputDevice     "Generic Keyboard"
       InputDevice     "Configured Mouse"
#       InputDevice     "Generic Mouse"
EndSection
