The only difference I have here is the type is just 'ps2' and
I have an a non-empty 'append'. These will both affect the
'input' side of gpm. So I think these differences are ok.

But here I have some differences, specifically these:
Option "Protocol" "IntelliMouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Perhaps the 'auto' option for protocol isn't clever enough and
you need to explicitly specify it? Try it, you never know.
Also, I thought of something else: what are the permissions of
the relay device? I have:
prw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 8 20:49 /dev/gpmdata

And if you run 'X' directly, so you only have the stippled screen,
and no WM or clients, then does the mouse work? I would expect
not because it sounds like a non-WM problem, but try it anyway.
(Run 'X &' or if you already have another X running try 'X :1 &')
Have you tried another mouse? :-)
