Yes, I had this too ... it seems you have to `gpm -k` or `killall -9 gpm` for everything to work happily, which is a PITA, to say
the least ... the ps2 repeating is reported not to be supported, which I think is a total lie =P
If it works after killing gpm, you have a repeating problem. I'm not sure how to fix that side of things. Anyone out there? =)
