Possibly until the real problem can be found and corrected, a switch from PS/2 port mouse to USB port mouse or vice versa, or just a different mouse, might help.
Worth a try, Felix. Stand by while I reboot. . . I'm back. Surprisingly, there was no problem. I booted three times, to make sure it was not a fluke. The PS/2 mouse is a Kensington trackball. I see no difficulty with the desktop on the v11.1 installation on the same machine. The two OSes are not on the same HD, for what that's worth. It's hard to see what the difference can be. Now I'll try to update with YaST, in the hope I can recover the menu. I should mention, however, that the installation in the laptop machine also has a lack on the panel -- the logout button at the extreme right end was missing, and I replaced it with one of the widgets (applets). So although it omission was a different one, the fact is that the panel was populated differently on two very different machines.
