Bug 104397

During the initial installation on my Thinkpad T42, YaST2 selected "Ignore mouse
- regardless if one exists" as the mouse model. What exactly does this selection
do? I could not find any explanation and this entry is quite confusing in my
opinion. The mouse worked, however. This is the output of "hwinfo --mouse" out
of a running system:
