Do other USB devices work? Have you tried several different mice? Before you plug in a particular mouse, open a terminal window and do a #>tail -f /var/log/messages (you might have to be root to do this). Plug the mouse in, and see if anything happens in the messages file. You should see a reaction almost immediately. When I plug my mouse in (currently runnning gentoo-amd64): Jan 18 10:50:12 [kernel] usb 3-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4 Jan 18 10:50:12 [kernel] input: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse® 1.0A] on usb-0000:00:02.1-1 This at least will establish whether your system even sees the new mouse being attached. You can unplug and try the other ports too. FWIW I also have a SuSE 9.2 partition on this box and it has never had problems seeing USB mice.
