There seem to be problems with the usb mouse and keyboard on Dell C521 and E521 see http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=sw_other&mes sage.id=54328
The workaround seems to be use a powered usb hub and usb pci card.

I have a Dell D620 with no PS2 ports. Everything works just fine. You should have no problems.

Hello, I just got a new Dell Dimension C521 w/AMD-64, when I opened it up I noticed that it does not have the conventional ps2 style mouse and kb connectors, will I be able to load and run Suse 10? I do know there is some support for usb kb / mouse. Is anybody running one of these with Suse? Any info is appreciated, now off to work Thanks Mike
The downside of these goofy new connections is that you can't use a keyboard you really want, or a "mouse" you really want. I have a number of IBM keyboards that I picked up years ago at flea markets, and they're loud, but indestructable, and have a really good "touch." I also use Kensington optical trackballs. I hate computer mice, and have no room for them on my working surfaces, anyway. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
