The kernel must be compiled with PS/2 support (or the appropriate module loaded). The /etc/gpm.conf file should look something like:
device=/dev/psaux responsiveness= type=ps2 append="-R" # this line is needed to use a PS/2 mouse in X Your XF86Config file should contain a section like this: Section "Pointer" Protocol "MouseSystems" Device "/dev/gpmdata" Emulate3Buttons Emulate3Timeout 50 (This is only needed for PS/2 mice when gpm is run in both X and the console.)
