I'm still having problems with XFree86 on my newly installed SuSE 8.1 system. 1) The more annoying problem is that, sometimes (about 1 in 3 or 4 logins), the mouse pointer goes haywire. Instead of of nicely following the mouse, the pointer jumps around, randomly emulating mouse clicks. The problem can be cured by restarting the X server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. The mouse has been working properly on the login screen. The mouse itself works fine under Win98 on the same PC, and two different mice (one cordless and one not) give the same effects. When the mouse works, it works perfectly (wheel and all); it's just that it's inconsistent. Relevant section of XF86Config: Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse[1]" Option "ButtonNumber" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on" Option "Name" "Mouse" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection 2) I seem to be stuck in a 1280x1024 screen mode. The monitor is a 19" Iiyama VisionMasterPro 454, and is certainly capable of 1600x1200 (I drive it at this res in 2 other OSes, including Win98 on the same PC). However, I cannot make linux use the larger resolutions. I have tried Ctrl-Alt-+ to no avail, and the YaST and SaX tools say that 1600x1200 should be the default resolution. The graphics card is an NVidia GeForce2 MX/400, using the latest NVidia drivers as downloaded through YOU. Again, the relevant section of XF86Config: Section "Screen" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1600x1200" "1600x1024" "1600x1000" "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1600x1200" "1600x1024" "1600x1000" "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1024x768" EndSubSection Device "Device[0]" Identifier "Screen[0]" Monitor "Monitor[0]" EndSection Can anyone suggest how I could get things working properly?
