After update SuSE 10.0 to 10.1 - Bluetooth mouse registered but NOT working at all - here a solution that worked for me today

before on SuSE 10.0 Bluetooth mouse worked perfectly
after update to 10.1 Bluetooth mouse death - after YUM update death as well

I have tried all solutions HERE in this forum as well as all others found by google search - no changes.

however minutes ago via ICQ i had a developer - a smart guy - who had a totally different approach

he told me to use in shell:
ls -la /dev/input

my output was

crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 64 Sep 14 12:29 event0
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 65 Sep 14 12:29 event1
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 66 Sep 14 12:29 event2
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 67 Sep 14 17:11 event3
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 63 Sep 14 12:29 mice
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 32 Sep 14 12:29 mouse0
crw-r----- 1 root root 13, 33 Sep 14 17:11 mouse1


in my xorg.conf however my Bluetooth mouse was mice2 and NO mouse ..

he told me to try all

cat /dev/input/ (all above variations - one by one, and move the Bluetooth mouse each time until I see funny output in my shell )

so i tried
cat /dev/input/mouse0
cat /dev/input/mouse1

and see

my Bluetooth mouse WAS before a

/dev/input/mice2

but NOW acts and enjoys life as

/dev/input/mouse1

hence I change the line in my

/etc/X11/xorg.conf
to read

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse1"
Option "Name" "Logitech Optical Mouse"
Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
Option "Vendor" "Sysp"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

X restarted and all Bluetooth mouse works perfect !!

may be this helps someone else as well
nowhere did i ever read that i have to change the device for my mouse to solve this problem ...
