I just downloaded SuSE 7.1 and I am going to install it this weekend. I
am
wondering if I am going to be able to use a USB mouse with this new
kernel.
I have been using an old PS/2 that needs to be retired, I am eying one
of
those new optical mice from Logitech. I am just concerned with the USB
support of the new kernel. Is it useable or is it still really buggy?
The
USB drivers that you can compile into the older kernels was buggy at
best.

I had aUSB mouse working quite well when I was using it. I was just trying
it thou. It wasnt a fancy mouse but it was USB. I think you will be ok,
but make sure you have the auto hardware finder(i think it is called kuzo)
enable when you reboot.

dunno about suse, but I've got a logitech optical usb (with the wheel)
working in redhat 7.1 wihout even the slightest problem. I had some
problems with USB in mandrake 7.2, but when I upgraded to RH 7.1 it was
detected in the install, and worked from that point onwards.

Regards,
Snowman
