    You could try dissbling gpm and see if that helps...

    gpm is mouse support for the console (not X). You can disable it in
    Yast>System>Runlevel editor. Go into the Runlevel Properties page and
    disable it, then reboot and see. If it works and you can live without
    console mouse support then you're fine, otherwise re-enable it.
