Sorry about that last post, had an itchy enter finger ;-)..... Anyways, I have a GX270, running suse 9.0, with kernel 2.6.2 (kraxel) and KDE 3.2(final). I am having wierd USB issues. I have the mouse plugged into the keyboard (both USB, dell). While I am using the PC the mouse will just stick, when I hit a key on the keyboard it comes back. If the mouse is plugged into the PC directly I have to plug -> re-plug to get it to come back..... same happens with the keyboard, I'm typing along and a key will get "stuck" then I wiggle the mouse, and it works. I'm pretty darn familar with linux and I'm not even sure where to start..... any suggestions????
Just tried the 2.6.2 kernel on my SuSE 9.0 desktop and I had some of the same issues. It doesn't even see my mouse, which is plugged into the USB ports on my Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro. I do not have sound either. I have gone back to the 2.4.21-166 kernel, which I upgraded to with YaST.
I am sure there are some options in the kernel config that I need to tweak, but I have not had a chance to play around with it much yet.
By the way, when I started with it, I did "make oldconfig" and said hit Enter on all new options to accept the defaults. I should probably go through that a little more carefully to see if there is something that screwed up some of the devices.
