I want to thank everyone who jumped in and assisted my with my recent
problems.
Errant updates caused my problems and, perhaps, my own ignorance.
After 5 days of hair-pulling, I re-installed SUSE 10.1 x86_64, with
similar problems that I reported back in early July and once earlier on
another install.
The purchased install DVD would hang if I did not unplug my epson 2400
usb scanner and didn't recognise my epson 925 usb printer or any usb
appliances attached.
A kernel update to kernel-smp-2.6.18_rc4-jen32@x86_64 granted access to
the usb devices, scanner and printer, but broke by ps/2 mouse. Pointer
appeared on all screens, graphic and console, but would not move.
Reverting to the original kernel returned mouse functionality and
retained the usb devices :^).
I have since updated to kernel-smp-2.6.18_rc4-1.3@x86_64, but the
nvidia video did not work. Returning to nv (switch2nv) got X back.
Have not explored this further, but will.
I am very happy with the present working conditions of SUSE 10.1. It
is the best linux distro that I have ever used. I look forward to
10.2.
Again, the efforts of the list-members was and is much appreciated.
Keep up the good work.
thankyou,
