If I boot the machine with the #1CD it boots into the linux installer without any problems. In fact the boot messages tell me that the system found the mouse. Unfortunately, when the gui opens the mouse doesn't work. Ttry a couple of things:
1) try a different mouse... and make sure that the mouse port or mouse pins have not been bent or damaged. 2) try another style mouse (standard 2-3 button PS/2 mouse--- no wheel, no optics, etc) 3) try another type of mouse (usb) 4) install a minimal machine with the text installer and then play around with the mouse settings. If all else fails, try the hardware diagnostics for your machine--- perhaps the mouse port is no longer functioning correctly. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
