Please attach the output of `hwinfo --mouse' as well as the file /etc/sysconfig/mouse.

In general, a PS/2 mouse is a PS/2 mouse (what model description is used is rather dismissable, because they all use the same protocol). If you set BUTTONS="3" and WHEELS="1" in /etc/sysconfig/mouse and run SuSEconfig, it should work.

Please also attach the YaST log.

As far as the yast2 log...which one is it?
Does it have a particular name?
I have submitted bug #137361 because I find yast2 logs too difficult to submit.
Ioannis

I followed your advise and I solved the problem.
Yet why yast2 failed to auto-configure my mouse properly?
In 9.3 it configured it better.
I think that this might be a yast2 bug.
Ioannis

Yes, you're right. Ordinarily this works, but YaST sets BUTTONS to 0 and WHEELS to 0, this is not quite right, it looks like the mouse wasn't detected at all...

Marcus: Please look into this.

The discussion here is about GPM (The mouse for the console) right ?
Otherwise it wouldn't make sense to talk about /etc/sysconfig/mouse and
the entries there which solves your problem according to your answers

First of all you are right, in former times we automatically setup the
GPM parameters in /etc/sysconfig/mouse but for 10.0 I got a request not to
start the GPM configuration during a graphical installation because people
will not understand the difference between the GPM for the console and the
mouse they can see on the currently running X-Server. This was the reason
why it has been removed from a graphical installation session. In a text
based installation the GPM will be setup automatically like you are used too

As result GPM is NOT configured automatically on your system anymore. To
solve this you simply need to call:

  yast2 mouse

accept the detected setting or select a mouse from the list and save.
That's it. After this you can start GPM like you did it before.

   rcgpm start
