My mouse has stopped working in Suse 9, please advise!


Hiya,

I've done something to upset my new Suse 9 machine.

I cant get a mouse to work with it! I have a USB MS mouse and the last thing I did was try and set the scroller working and correct model in SaX2 and now it doesnt work. I have obviously selected the wrong settings somewhere.

It wont even recognise my PS2 cheapo thingy.

Whats happened guys? How can I can reset the mouse driver to a default one?

Whats the keyboard shortcut to open the start menu coz I need to back in the control centre.

Its doing my nut in!

Please Help! I'm using Windows at the minute!

Thanks

Reset all your video settings and it should fix the mouse too.
