Ubuntu release: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
xorg package version: 1:7.7+1ubuntu8.1

No matter where I put my custom mouse input device xorg config, I cannot
get the settings to be used. I tried putting my file (90-razer-
lachesis.conf) in various places (/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/,
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and even copied the content of my file into
/etc/xorg.conf), but nothing works.

The custom config seems to be picked up by by Xorg, as can be found in
the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file, but nonetheless the configuration defined
in the config is not respected.

Here's the config file (90-razer-lachesis.conf); it should merely
inverts the left and right buttons, to be used as a left hand mouse:

Section "InputClass"                                          
        Identifier "Razer Lachesis Mouse"
        MatchUSBID "1532:000c"
        MatchIsPointer "True"
        Option "ButtonMapping" "3 2 1"
EndSection

Here's the log from Xorg when I plug the mouse in:
