Hi!

Specifying a USB device with Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" or
Option "Dev Phys" "usb-*/input0" is not very good as this can change
if you connecting another device. It's better to use Option "Device"
"/dev/input/by-id/something" as that will always point to the right
device or use the Option "Dev Name" "Logitech USB Optical Mouse", you
don't need all three options.
And i think that's Option "Name" and Option "Phys".
