I have tried it three times and after a while system stopped responding. And as regards VMware, i use VMware with 1,5GB RAM on the other hardware, so the issue shouldn´t be caused by low memory. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The problem with vmmouse is almost certainly that it's being installed in the wrong place: it should be installed in .../modules/input instead of .../modules/drivers.

Can someone from Novell please address this?

Sorry, that was my fault. I moved the driver around a bit. Originally, it is correct: linux:~ # rpm -ql xorg-x11-driver-input xorg-x11-driver-video | grep "mod.*vm" /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/vmmouse_drv.la /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/vmmouse_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vmware_drv.la /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vmware_drv.so Starting X shows: X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/vmmouse_drv.so: undefined symbol: xf86LoaderReqSymLists -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In general, not only for the LiveCD. :-) Thanks for asking! In more detail. We no longer use xorg.conf since openSUSE 11.2. On 11.2. we used HAL .fdi files for input configuration. There was one for vmmouse shipped with the driver itself. Now we use snippets in xorg.conf.d. But currently there is none available for vmmouse. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
