This is the last call for comments for the review of debconf templates for gpm. The reviewed templates will be sent on Monday, June 25, 2007 to the package maintainer as a bug report and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag. --
Template: gpm/restart
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Do you want to (re)start GPM while X is running?
Usually, GPM should be started or restarted when it is installed or
upgraded. However, when X is running and trying to use the same mouse
device, this can sometimes cause a problem with the X mouse cursor.
Switching to the console and then back to X will usually fix it.

movement, and is expressed as a number. If the mouse seems to
move too slowly, try setting this to 15.
Template: gpm/repeat_type
Type: string
Default: ms3
_Description: Protocol to use for repeating mouse events:
GPM can act as a repeater via /dev/gpmdata, and give both GPM and X access

to only X or GPM.
.
Enter 'none' to turn repeating off.
Template: gpm/sample_rate
Type: string
_Description: Mouse sample rate:
The sample rate defines how often GPM polls the mouse device for new
