Package: gpm Version: 1.19.6-22 Severity: normal I recently upgraded gpm (running debian sid), and was very annoyed when my mouse froze in gnome/X. Simply switching to a console, moving the mouse a bit till the cursor showed, then switching back to X fixed this, but it is still annoying. Relevant configs:
/etc/gpm.conf:
device=/dev/ttyS1
responsiveness=
repeat_type=none
type=ms
append=''
sample_rate=
/etc/X11/xorg.conf:
