SUSE 11.2 Problem - keyboard & mouse not responding at login

Hi all,

I recently installed suse 11.2 on my system and during the install the keyboard (Microsoft internet keyboard PS/2) and mouse (Microsoft optical mouse USB with scroll wheel) worked perfectly, but once I reached the login screen they both became unusable.

I also tried rebooting into failsafe mode but once reaching the login screen the same happened again, the only key that seems to work is the ‘F Lock’ key and the optical light appears on the mouse.

can anyone help, thanks

Query the forum, I’ve seen similar threads. It depends on hardware, but they usually dealt with the presence of /etc/X11/xorg.conf. If you have one, try renaming it and restarting. If that doesn’t work try running sax2 and configuring. Perhaps someone will chime in with a better solution.
