No Core Pointer error when trying to start x when connected to my port replicator at work
Hi list When i have my laptop (ibm T42) with SUSE 10 connected to my port replicator in my office when in runlevel 3 i try to startx but i get an error saying "no core pointer" but when i remove the mouse and type startx again it will load x as it should. i search google on it and find some info about it but i didnt get what they meant as they were for another distribution and im not a guru on linux, still a newbee :) hope someone can point me into the right direction to get rid of the error and load x with the mouse connected to the replicator. TIA Anders Bolinder

Hi Anders, This is a very hardware-specific issue to resolve. Can you please identify the make and model "port replicator" we'll be discussing? Also include some of the links you found but didn't understand. This should give subscribers to SLE a bit more info to work with. regards, Carl
