Weird!

I have a Kensington optical USB mouse.

Worked fine under SuSE7.0 and 7.2

Kind regards,

Simon

To the group,

For what it's worth.

A while back I tried to get  SuSE 7.2 to recognize a usb mouse which was 
plugged into a usb port.  I got many suggestions from the list, but no
matter 
what I tried it just wouldn't work.

I took a little poll on this list and no one was using a usb port.  Everyone

used a ps/2 port.

I just installed SuSE 7.2 on a machine that has the same kind of mouse, but 
it's plugged into the ps/2 port, and the mouse was recognized and works ok.

The wheel even works.  

The conclusion I've come to is that you can't use a mouse plugged into a usb

port.   

Ron
