Has anyone else here been experiencing gpm troubles on potato in recent
days?  I've tried downgrading gpm and libs to a version which is working
on another box, but that hasn't helped.

This is a PS/2 style mouse, btw.

Syslog reports "/usr/sbin/gpm[pid]: Error in protocol" whenever I move
the mouse, and the keyboard locks up for a while.  (I've even gone to a
remote machine and remotely rebooted during these periods, not knowing
it might resolve itself in time.)

Is there any chance this is due to the recent changes in the kbd package?
It's fairly obviously not gpm, since downgrading gpm didn't help.

Being rather ill at present, I'm not trusting my own diagnostic skills
like I normally would, and may have missed something obvious.

Suggestions?
