[opensuse] Mouse troubles hosting on Microsoft Virtual Server
Dear all, I have a problem with mouse when running the openSuse 10.2 as a host on MS Virtual Server. Mouse react but it is completely mad. I'm currently accesing the console via MS Virtual Machine Manager. Yast Hardware Information shows mouse as TTPS/ IBM Trackpoint mouse, but if I select it as PS/2 Mouse (Aux-port), it doesn't work. Has anybody similar problems? Or, how should I proceed to solve that problem? Thanks and best regards Janko -- Janko Mivšek Svetovalec za informatiko Eranova d.o.o.

Normally, one would explain solutions found to problems announced on the list. As you have left it, no one else who has the same problem (perhaps in the future) will have access to your unpublished solution.

Patrick - reread Janko's posts; you'll find that he did indeed list problem and solution (albeit with top-posting as is typical of M$ mail clients). Problem - mouse misbehaving when running Linux under MS VMM. Solution - install VMAdditions for Linux (downloadable from M$ web site). What was wrong with that (apart from his use of "with" instead of "by", which is understandable for someone for whom English is not their first language)?

Patrick no problem, and thanks to Rodney for clarifying that. Best regards Janko -- Janko Mivšek AIDA/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
