temporarily set up Linux on your brother's laptop (the same version you use) and then test, you could determine. if it's hardware or Linux. If it turns out to be hardware, you should alert the manufacturers of your machine and its video card. (And the mouse!) They will certainly want to know, since most of their customers are using Windows, where the problem will also exist. If it turns out the other way--Linux--you should file a bug report.
A slightly more convenient variation on this would be to run Knoppix or similar on your machine, and if the problem occurs with that, try it on your brother's PC. That would avoid the installation. BTW, bear in mind that optical mice don't like blue things. They absorb all the red light and confuse the mouse. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
