USB mouse not recognized till after gpm starts

[Kent West <westk@acu.edu>]

I've got a Del Optiplex GX260 with a USB mouse. When I boot up, gpm 
starts before the USB mouse driver stuff kicks in, therefore gpm doesn't 
see the mouse. After I get logged in, I can then run "/etc/init.d/gpm 
restart" and the mouse works just fine.

How do I go about getting the mouse driver working before gpm starts? Is 
it just a matter of re-ordering the gpm script in /etc/rc2.d, or is 
there a more "proper" way, or what?

Thanks!
