Keymap not correct, although the value in xorg.conf is correct.

My keymap is not correct, I think that on every reboot it is reset to 'us', but my xorg.cof, as you can see, contains the value 'it'.

I always have to run 'setxkbmap it' everytime I start LXDE.

Re: Keymap not correct, although the value in xorg.conf is correct.

You have inserted it into the config of the mouse, rather than at the keyboard.

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Keyboard0"
    Driver         "kbd"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Mouse0"
    Driver         "mouse"
    Option         "Protocol" "auto"
    Option         "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
    Option       "XkbLayout" "it"
    Option       "XkbVariant" ""
EndSection

Although I can't say for certain it will work, it would seem like a good first step to change it.
