I don't. I use the mach64 xserver. My mouse is a ps2 mouse with the
"gpm -R" trick so I can use the mouse in the console and X.
It takes the regular 2 seconds that my monitor always takes when it
switches modes (and makes an audible electric ZAP sound), but as soon as
the screen comes back the mouse works right away.
