I've been half-following this thread for the past two days, yet I've
never seen this mentioned so I figured I'd throw it out there. You said
you had a Genius NetMouse right? There's a "netmouse" option available
in gpm that you might want to take a look at. I'm not sure if X has an
equivalent setting for it or not, but if it doesn't you can always try
having gpm repeat ImPS/2 and using ImPS/2 in X. Just a thought.
