Rep:
Looks like these 2 is all you are setup to be using.
Looks like you're missing a "Mouse[2]"
What type of connection is your Creative Mouse? USB, PS/2, serial, etc... ??
You may want to go into Yast, Hardware, and see if you can configure this new mouse that way.
If that doesnt work, we can figure out how try and add it manually.
