Hey!

I've got a IBM ThinkPad R31 and I just loaded SuSE Linux 10.1 on it. The
main problem I'm having at this point is the mouse doesn't work right. If
I move the cursor really slowly, it's mostly okay but if I move it fast or
try to do too much with it, it just starts freaking out and jumping all
over the screen and clicking everything and making a huge mess. I tried
configuring the mouse as type "Auto/Generic" and also as "PS/2/PS/2" and I
get the same results with both. What else might be the problem? Thanks!
