Are all the DE's from Slytherin?

Many people think all of LV's followers were from Slytherin because in 
the first book Hagrid tells Harry that "not a single witch or wizard 
who went bad who wasn't from Slytherin" (p. 80 US ed.).  But in the 
second book the narrator says that Slytherin was "the house that has 
turned out more dark witches and wizards that any other" (p. 77).  I 
guess people remember the first statement only because it was in the 
movie, but I prefer to think that Hagrid is simply mistaken and the 
narrator is to be trusted more.

This leads to two questions:

(1) Even if all of LV's followers are from different houses, are the 
Death Eaters (i.e., LV's inner circle) all from Slytherin?

(2) Will students from different houses or only from Slytherin side 
with LV if the upcoming war extends to Hogwarts?
