I've been using MouseMan MousePort Version with ps/2 protocol without any
problem in both X and gpm.
This is my XF86config mouse section
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device "/dev/psaux"

One work around is to use gpm -R /dev/gpmdata then set X to use device
/dev/gpmdata and protocol, IIRC, MouseMan.
hope this help.
