Re: PS/2 Mouse Port
The kernel must be compiled with PS/2 support (or the appropriate
module loaded). The /etc/gpm.conf file should look something like:
device=/dev/psaux
responsiveness=
type=ps2
append="-R" # this line is needed to use a PS/2 mouse in X
Your XF86Config file should contain a section like this:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "MouseSystems"
Device "/dev/gpmdata"
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 50
(This is only needed for PS/2 mice when gpm is run in both X and the console.)
