Edit: I tried it and it almost worked, but it said "nvidia drivers" module not found and something else too and "screens not found"
This sounds like the nvidia driver for XFree86 is not present in XFree86.dsl - I thought it was - you would need to check in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input (or something like that - look to see where the i810 module is, it would be in the same place) to see if it is there.

Edit2: I changed config -files "drivers section" to vesa and i got picture but then it crashed. It said "synaptics modules not found".
This sounds like the XF86Config-4 file you have is set up for a synaptics or alps touchpad and not for a mouse. For a mouse, there should be a section in XF86Config-4 that looks something like this:

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier  "Mouse0"
 Driver      "mouse"
 Option     "Protocol" "PS/2"
 Option     "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
 Option     "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
 Option     "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection

If you see a section that starts like this, comment it out and try again:

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier   "TouchPad"
 Driver       "synaptics"
 Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
 Option      "Protocol" "alps"
...
EndSection

'Looks like we made the last posts at the same time. You don't need the i810 module - I just used that as an example of where to find the nvidia driver since I know the i810 module is included with XFree86.dsl.

Edit: After rebooting X didn´t started, it said "failed to initialize core devices"
This sounds like you need to edit the server layout section in XF86Config-4 so that the mouse (and not a touchpad - see line commented out) and keyboard are specified something like this:

Section "ServerLayout"
 Identifier     "XFree86 Configured"
 Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
 InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
#InputDevice    "TouchPad" "CorePointer"
InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Note that there is an XFree86 log in /var/log that might be helpful in troubleshooting.

My config looks like this>

# XF86Config-4 (XFree86 X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the XF86Config-4 manual page.
# (Type "man XF86Config-4" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xfree86 package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xfree86
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands as root:
#
#   cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.custom
#   md5sum /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 > /var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum
#   dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
