	I don't know why running gpm freezes your mouse in X.  There
	seems to be a conflict between gpm and X, your not the only one
	who experiences this.  I did get the mouse working in both modes
	but lost the third mouse button in the process so I just shut
	off gpm and turn it on when I need it.
	/etc/init.d/gpm stop
	/etc/init.d/gpm start
	will do that for you.  You can search the archives and see if
	any of the fixes out there work for you.
