Okay, my mouse (a Logitech 3 button mouse, new) seems to work fine in X, and I know that it is connected to /dev/ttyS0. However, when I issue a gpm command, I get gpm: freopen(stderr) failed I've run the gpm config program many times, and the gpm config file appears to be built properly. In any case, the mouse appears to not work at all at the console under gpm. No cursor shows up, and according to ps ax, gpm does not continue after the above error. Paul M. Foster
