hey a friend of mine has got his mouse not working in Suse9.3Pro distro ,and he prolly has his PS/2 port blown.
So is there any way to use the numpad as a mouse?

that poor guy is really poor and he is unable to buy a new USB mouse or change his m0b0 .and also he has only Suse in his system,no other OS.




his confi is : AMD Athlon (equivalent to 1.6 GHz),ASUS m0b0,Intel LANcard,40 GB HDD,Samsung CD-RW,C-media audio card.

Yes, I can recall that KDE supports this for sure, and probably so does Gnome. Check in the Control Centre for the option.

This has a handy collection of keyboard shortcuts for Gnome and KDE, and it also mentions the keys to activate mouse key emulation.
