Excerpt #1:
I just googled and found this 'pci=nommconf instead of acpi=off in grub 
did the trick for me' or 'disabling USB Legacy Support from BIOS'.

Excerpt #2:
Thank you very much. Thanks to your advice I am sending this message 
from my PC with SuSE Linux 10.0 installed. What I had to do was to 
disable the USB Mouse and Keyboard Support from the BIOS.
