from your log: [ 39.796] (==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Mon Apr 27 22:54:01 2015 [ 39.851] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d" from my log: [370012.609] (==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.1.log", Time: Tue Apr 28 13:09:52 2015 [370012.610] (==) Using config directory: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d" [370012.610] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d" Check your/mint's configure options. This is rather odd.
