Mouse not working

English Hardware

Hi, I’m new to OpenSUSE and to Linux, so please bear with my noob questions.

I own a Logitech MX510 Gaming Optical Mouse, and as OpenSUSE could not detect all the buttons by default, I tried changing the mouse model from the Control Center. I selected Logitech, and then USB Gaming Mouse. Clicked OK, and selected the test server option. The screen went blue, then black. It could not detect the mouse, so I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. Nothing happened. Waited for a few minutes, still nothing. Finally, I manually restarted my computer. Now it doesn’t detect the mouse at all! What do I do?

PS: It works in FailSafe mode.

Boot in failsafe (it all the same system)
Use Yast to reset/configure your mouse
Try normal boot again

I tried that. Doesn’t work. Still doesn’t detect anything. :frowning:

By the way, I do not remember which mouse it was set to by default. Maybe if I set it to that, it’ll start working again? Does anyone know which one it could be? :’(

Check here
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

look for this section:

Section "InputDevice"
  Driver       "mouse"
  Identifier   "Mouse[1]"
  Option       "Buttons" "5"
  Option       "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
  Option       "EmulateWheel" "on"
  Option       "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
  Option       "InputFashion" "Mouse"
  Option       "Name" "IBM;TPPS/2 TrackPoint"
  Option       "Protocol" "explorerps/2"
  Option       "Vendor" "Sysp"
  Option       "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

That’s mine.

In the X11 directory, is there a old xorg.conf ? It may have your old settings.
