should i change my mouse setting?
but if it's wrong ,why can i startx after i type startx again?

You don't have your mouse device loaded or so. I'm not completely sure on how to fix it. Looks like you have to reconfigure your xserver with "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and pick the right mouse.

Also look here:
http://wiki.x.org/wiki/FAQErrorMessa...f593ac99d7ab5a

Try adding a new line that says "psmouse" to the end of /etc/modules, like this:

psmouse

The /etc/modules file is used for loading kernel modules/drivers during boot time and adding "psmouse" there will load the psmouse module so that it's ready when you type "startx" to start X session.

this really work below
"Please note: Usually the server refuses to start if there is no core pointer device. You can change this by adding the line:
Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "1"
to the ServerFlags section of your xorg.conf. "

nice .!!!
thank you darkleaf
