(Suse 9.0 + Toshiba 1955-s803) XF86/Mouse problems


Hello, I have installed suse 9.0 on my toshiba satellite 1955-s803.

1) Touchpad & USB Mouse: is there a way to enable both my usb mouse and the touchpad ? adding 2 mouse devices in /etc/X11/XF86Config ? (one usb, the other generic ps/2) ?

2) Screen Resolution : There is something very wierd, I have setup the configuration so that my screen is at 1280x1024 at 85hz. Using nvidia gforce 440 as my graphic card (i installed the kernel patch). The wierd thing : When kdm/gdm first starts, everything works fine, if i logout from an x session or if i restart the x server, two things happen, the mouse cursor disappears and the screen gets screwed badly showing triple copies of the gui. Any ideas? the wierd thing is that this happens only when X is restarted or when i logout ! but when X starts the first time everything is ok

Any suggestions ?


If anyone has a working XF86Config for the 1955-s803, please notify me


Thanks

Just installed. Suse 9.1 works perfect out of the box.
