Re: [suse-multimedia-e] Suse 7.3 and MS Wireless Keyboard/Mouse

Thanks for all the great feedback. Wasn't sure I'd have to recompile the kernel or since it is a Microsoft product there would be some kind of incompatibility issue. Cheers!

Hi Nick,
I had it working on Suse 7.2 and now on Suse 7.3 and it's just a question of plugnplay. No problem to report.

I just purchased a Microsoft Wireless Keyboard and Mouse bundle. But before I open the box I need to know if it is difficult getting a wireless keyboard and mouse functioning on a SuSE 7.3 installation. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Hi, Of the topic alittle but.... I've found that lucky that most hardware support can be complied as a module these days anyway! But SuSE's very good anyway so most of the time they come with the latest and greatest anyway so this normally isn't needed. But it is great that today, no more recompling the kernel every time you get a new bit of hardware. I think it's good anyway, plus you can dynamically load the modules in and out of memory.... I remember when I installed Linux for the first time everything was compiled into the kernel which was a problem because I first installed Linux on a 486 and needd to update the kernel.... hehe try compling a Linux Kernel on one of those.... Tim Sorry if I bored you :) Nicholas Bennington wrote:
