I think you need to change /etc/gpm.conf to read something like:
device=/dev/mouse
responsiveness=
repeat_type=raw
type=ps2
append=""
and then restart gpm, i.e., as root run "/etc/init.d/gpm restart".
Change the mouse section in XF86Config-4 to:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
EndSection

Maybe add some options to better define your keyboard and the number
of keys it has. My XF86Config-4 has these, but yours will probably be
different:
You could add mode lines to Section "Screen" to control modes and add
line to control default color depth.

If you are using xdm, gdm, or kdm, after you make changes to
XF86Config-4, stop the service and restart it for the changes to take
effect. For example:
# /etc/init.d/gdm stop
# /etc/init.d/gdm start
