Make sure you read the .info

i followed them, though i noticed my xf86config-4 folder disappears after i restart... well here are the directions i followed:

this package contains the XFree86 X-server,
many video and input drivers. openGL drivers
driver info: http://www.xfree86.org/4.3.0/Status.html
THIS IS NOT A CLICK AND PLAY PACKAGE. you need to add 2 files
1. CHANGE /home/dsl/.xserverrc to:
exec /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 -nolisten tcp
****(copy included in /home/dsl/XFree86_config_files)****
2. CREATE a /etc/X11/XF86Config-4: the content of this file
depends on the hardware you have. you can find examples of
such file all over the internet (use google). i have some
on http://home.zonnet.nl/henk.1955
this does NOT remove the DSL KDrive ( the small XServer)
if the XFree86 wont start, you can type: xsetup.sh to get the DSL-X back.
then try to correct the error in XF86Config-4
(****There are several working XF86Config-4 files in
the included home/dsl/XFree86_config_files directory..
Start with the XF86Config-4_vesa version first****)
Thanks to Henk1955 for the kickstart and contribution
and SaidenUnleashed for testing it on ATI/Radeon hardware
Compaq and Toshibe laptops and NVidia tested by ke4nt.

xf86config-4 is the actual file, not a folder...

now how do i set up my usb mouse with it??? my mouse doesnt move..

- it is not a folder... if you are using a preconfigured one, copy the plaintext file to there.
- it's on your ramdisk

EDIT:
looks like we both posted at the same time

Set your mouse device to "/dev/mouse" in your config file (i.e. by editing with a text editor, or the config program)
