Suse thinks synaptics touchpad is usbmouse...


Ok, besides my wlan trouble suse is having dificulties with my mouse. I work with a HP pavilion zv5133ea notebook with a logitch trackman wheel connected. The trackman doesn't work so I checked my XF86Config file, it contains these entries:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
Option "Name" "Autodetection"
Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
Option "Vendor" "Sysp"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[3]"
Option "Buttons" "4"
Option "Device" "/dev/usbmouse"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
Option "EmulateWheel" "on"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "4"
Option "EmulateWheelInertia" "12"
Option "InputFashion" "Mouse"
Option "Name" "Logitech;TrackMan Marble FX (PS/2)"
Option "Protocol" "MouseManPlusPS/2"
Option "XAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "YAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection


When I do: cat /dev/input/mice or cat /dev/usbmouse it gives output when touching my touchpad, not when using my usb mouse.

Is there anyone who knows how to solve this problem?
