gpm and X or not?
Can GPM and X co-exist or not?
I recently tried GPM, and it seemed to work in text consoles and co-exist
with X. I could switch back and forth between text consoles and the
virtual console displaying X.
Then it crashed X. It seems that they co-exist as long as there is no
mouse activity for some length of time before you switch back to the X
server. If the mouse is moving when you switch to X, the X server crashes,
reporting an error about not being able to open a device.
