Well, after much searching I FINALLY figured this out...everyone's
replies pointed me in the right direction of thinking.  I remember the
last time I pulled this server out of the rack to my desk, I attached my
"available" mouse to it, a M$ Intellimouse.  8)  Turned off mouse
support in Yast and rebooted and NO ERRORS!  

Thanx to all for your help!!
