As part of an earlier effort I changed to "lightdm" if that matters? That never caused a problem before ...
What is the log output now? The Desktop won't matter as this is initialized when Xorg is started.
[root@localhost bobg]# grep evdev /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 73.809] (**) Power Button: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 73.908] (**) Power Button: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 73.911] (**) Logitech USB Trackball: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall" [ 73.914] (**) USB Keyboard: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 73.917] (**) USB Keyboard: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall"
Does the output of the log change if you move the line
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
Into the top entry "catchall" and remove what you've edited in that file?
FWIW, I don't think you should be editing the file you are as user changes really should go into their own file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. The file at /usr/share/X11...... could get overwritten when an update occurs.
