X.org, USB optical mouse and SuSE 9.3 AMD64 : bad behaviour at 3 (components) !

Hello all

Before, I tested the SuSE 10.0 AMD64 and I got so many problems that I decided
to go back to the SuSE 9.3 AMD64. The main problems under 10.0 are : no
PCMCIA available (card modem), crash of the X server (driver nv) when reading
DVDs, freeze of the computer with driver nVidia (8178) after 4 or 5 minutes
of use, very slow access by writing files on USB memory key.
I hoped to have no such problems with SuSE 9.3. I use it but on a laptop 32
bits : all works perfectly. Similar behaviour with AMD64 version ? My 64 bits
computer : an Asus L5D laptop (Athlon64 3000+, chipset nVidia 150, graphic
card nVidia 5650, touchpad and USB optical mouse). On this laptop, WinXP and
SuSE 9.2 AMD64 ... and a space for an other SuSE ! All works fine under 9.2
(except often artsd of KDE (at login) and sometimes ksorfirq which becomes
"crasy" : 100% of CPU used) : no problem in the use of the two devices,
touchpad and mouse, in parallel. After installation of SuSE 9.3, I did a
YOU : all is updated now. But I have a curious behaviour : after a random
time of use, I loose the mouse. I tried an other one : same behaviour. When
it occurs, the touchpad is still available. But when I do a logout, KDE
closes very slowly and after the screen becomes black : no other way than to
use the on/off swith of the laptop for halting properly the system. When the
touchpad is desactived from the bios, I have the same problem ... but no way
to exit from KDE ! For information, when I was watching a DVD (with Kaffeine)
suddently the sound switched off and the mouse was lost at the same time. It
occured one time. Curious behaviour, isn't it :-) ? Who can help me for
solving this problem ? I tried to use other protocols for mouse (explorer,
imps) without success. I did several configurations with Sax2. No
improvement. Help !!!

Kind regards

Pascal
