Hmm.. Why do you think it might be your mouse? Because it's M$? (good reasoning) I haven't had much change to look at X at all, so I guess I'm not the best help you can get, but maybe it's a good idea to watch your box using a shell session (telnet/ssh) while starting X. Try to find out what it's loading and where it stops. Try to tail your syslog or top your box. Doesn't ctrl-\ work for you btw? Maybe you can kill your X-server using a telnetsession? This is about all the help I can offer you. Not much to go with I know, but still. I hope it helps. Rogier Togan Muftuoglu wrote:
I had alreay removed the scanner but it does not help
the last time i tried it the mouse was sticked to the upper roght corner of the display. So it could be something with the mouse configuration. I tried sax but it also gets stuck.

Hi everyone,
I got a weird problem (at least for me). When I start the X environment KDE suddenly everything stops. No mouse movement no keyboard nothing. I can not even go abck to the console using Ctrl+ALt+Fkey noway.
thinking could be microsoft intelliwheel problem (which was working fine this morning) changed the mouse to ps/2 mouse in XF86config. Nope
Back to yast integrate hardware -->mouse ps/2 mouse selected start gpm no (it was off anyway)
reboot try startx nope.
The only hardware added to the system is usb scanner but the Bios was enabled before also. Plus I use the stock suse special eide kernel. Eveything on the console was working fine as far as I can see
got any ideas how to get things back
Did you try disconnecting the scanner? Since that was the last change, I'd look in that direction. Maybe a timeout problem the BIOS can't handle.
Good luck
