I have a PS/2 mouse in /dev/psaux, I tried the configuration above , with
the exceptions: device = /dev/ttyS1 ( I used /dev/psaux) and type=mman (
I used PS/2)
with the above changes in the XF86Config file, I had X server die, I found
in the man page for GPM to use /dev/gpmdata instead of /etc/gpmdata, so I
changed that, but I still got damaged results, X ran , but the mouse was
wrong, it moved OK, but the buttons were completely messed up, not reversed
both just really screwy for instance, I did not have the function of a
right handed user's left button, on any of my buttons.
Any ideas as to where to go next?
BTW: the changes worked in regular shells just not in X
