Run gpmconfig as root and change the mouse type to ps/2 and the repeat
type to raw -- gpm and X must agree on the type of mouse you have or
your mouse will develop multiple personality disorder. :-)
I recommend changing the mouse device in XF86Config to
/dev/gpmdata too -- it's made the mouse more responsive and less
'jumpy' on every machine I've tried it on.
