What's the problem with gpm and X both opening /dev/input/mice? I thought
/dev/input/mice supports multiple opens, at least I had it working at some
time ...
In case it really doesn't work that way, use /dev/input/mice for gpm and
set X to use /dev/input/mouse[0-n] as separate pointers, all receiving
core events. I have to agree with Branden that this is too sick to use as
default in the package :-) Better fix the inputdev layer to feed multiple
clients properly.
