I don't know whether this is a Ximian or a S.u.S.E 7.3 problem.
Occasionally, after booting up, my mouse goes to sleep and won't wake up until I cold reboot. Ctrl-Alt-Del won't work in those cases.
What can I do to prevent this from recurring?
Since you're using the mouse, you're also probably running X. Have you tried just killing and restarting the X server. Try "ctrl-alt-backspace" to kill the current X server, which init should then restart. Maybe your mouse will reappear. It can't hurt, and if it works prevents a reboot.

Look in the kernel docs under the power management section. There is a compile option that relates to this problem. JHS
