Hi there,
I have recently installed both Suse 11.0 and 11.1 on a not quite new machine with onboard graphikcard (VIA S3 Unichrome Pro K8M800).
once I managed to get the graphikcard to work by using the vesa driver, I now have the mouse only working in failsafe mode.
here the xorg.config:
Section “Module”
This loads the DBE extension module.
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables
initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
This loads the font modules
Load “type1”
Load "freetype"
Load “xtt”
This loads the GLX module
Load “glx”
This loads the DRI module
Load “dri”
EndSection
**********************************************************************
Files section. This allows default font and rgb paths to be set
**********************************************************************
Section “Files”
The location of the RGB database. Note, this is the name of the
file minus the extension (like “.txt” or “.db”). There is normally
no need to change the default.
RgbPath “/usr/share/X11/rgb”
Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (which are concatenated together),
as well as specifying multiple comma-separated entries in one FontPath
command (or a combination of both methods)
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc:unscaled"

Server flags section.
**********************************************************************
Section “ServerFlags”
Uncomment this to cause a core dump at the spot where a signal is
received. This may leave the console in an unusable state, but may
provide a better stack trace in the core dump to aid in debugging
Option “NoTrapSignals”
Uncomment this to disable the <Ctrl><Alt><Fn> VT switch sequence
(where n is 1 through 12). This allows clients to receive these key
events.
Option “DontVTSwitch”
Uncomment this to disable the <Ctrl><Alt><BS> server abort sequence
This allows clients to receive this key event.
Option “DontZap”
Uncomment this to disable the <Ctrl><Alt><KP_+>/<KP_-> mode switching
sequences. This allows clients to receive these key events.
Option “Dont Zoom”
Uncomment this to disable tuning with the xvidtune client. With
it the client can still run and fetch card and monitor attributes,
but it will not be allowed to change them. If it tries it will
receive a protocol error.
Option “DisableVidModeExtension”
Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local xvidtune client.
Option “AllowNonLocalXvidtune”
Uncomment this to disable dynamically modifying the input device
(mouse and keyboard) settings.
Option “DisableModInDev”
Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local client to
change the keyboard or mouse settings (currently only xset).
Option “AllowNonLocalModInDev”

Core keyboard’s InputDevice section
**********************************************************************
Section “InputDevice”
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "kbd"
Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
Option “Xleds” “1 2 3”
Option “LeftAlt” “Meta”
Option “RightAlt” “ModeShift”
To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
keyboard, you will probably want to use:
Option “XkbModel” “pc105”
If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
Option “XkbModel” “microsoft”
Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
Option “XkbLayout” “de”
or:
Option “XkbLayout” “de”
Option “XkbVariant” “nodeadkeys”
If you’d like to switch the positions of your capslock and
control keys, use:
Option “XkbOptions” “ctrl:swapcaps”
These are the default XKB settings for Xorg
Option “XkbRules” “xorg”
Option “XkbModel” “pc105”
Option “XkbLayout” “us”
Option “XkbVariant” “”
Option “XkbOptions” “”
Option “XkbDisable”
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"

Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice. In
almost every case these lines should be omitted.
Option “BaudRate” “9600”
Option “SampleRate” “150”
Mouse wheel mapping. Default is to map vertical wheel to buttons 4 & 5,
horizontal wheel to buttons 6 & 7. Change if your mouse has more than
3 buttons and you need to map the wheel to different button ids to avoid
conflicts.
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button mice
Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)
Option "Emulate3Buttons"
Option “Emulate3Timeout” “50”
ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice
Option “ChordMiddle”

Any number of graphics device sections may be present
Standard VGA Device:
Section “Device”
Identifier “Standard VGA”
VendorName “Unknown”
BoardName “Unknown”
The chipset line is optional in most cases. It can be used to override
the driver’s chipset detection, and should not normally be specified.
Chipset “generic”
The Driver line must be present. When using run-time loadable driver
modules, this line instructs the server to load the specified driver
module. Even when not using loadable driver modules, this line
indicates which driver should interpret the information in this section.
Driver "vga"
The BusID line is used to specify which of possibly multiple devices
this section is intended for. When this line isn’t present, a device
section can only match up with the primary video device. For PCI
devices a line like the following could be used. This line should not
normally be included unless there is more than one video device
intalled.
BusID “PCI:0:10:0”
VideoRam 256
Clocks 25.2 28.3

ServerLayout sections.
**********************************************************************
Any number of ServerLayout sections may be present. Each describes
the way multiple screens are organised. A specific ServerLayout
section may be specified from the X server command line with the
“-layout” option. In the absence of this, the first section is used.
When now ServerLayout section is present, the first Screen section
is used alone.
Section “ServerLayout”
The Identifier line must be present
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Each Screen line specifies a Screen section name, and optionally
the relative position of other screens. The four names after
primary screen name are the screens to the top, bottom, left and right
of the primary screen. In this example, screen 2 is located to the
right of screen 1.
Screen "Screen 1"
Each InputDevice line specifies an InputDevice section name and
optionally some options to specify the way the device is to be
used. Those options include “CorePointer”, “CoreKeyboard” and
“SendCoreEvents”.
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
