Honestly joe I dont remember

But this is what I do remember

each mouse be on it own bus they all cant point to /dev/mouse or
/dev/input/mouse
then you edit your gpm.conf which you have to do the layout for each mouse
and specify if each one is left or right handed.

Now hopefully after that it should work right if now you have to then edit
your xorg.conf to specify each mouse in x if suse does not do it for you.

I will try to find the page I found this infot as I stumbled acrossed it
while trying to get a old alps touch pad to work on a friends old laptop.
