That sounds promising, but I see no evidence in the log file.
I assume this line
  (==) NVIDIA(0): Silken mouse enabled
doesn't count as the NVIDIA is a display driver and I see nothing
relevent in the doc that came with it.

I do have two InputDevice sections in xorg.conf about the mouse, but my
ServerLayout only mentions one.  I attach both my log and xorg.conf
below.

Thanks for helping.
