Hmmmm.
I don't seem to have a /dev/gmpdata. Can you give me an LS on it so I can do a mknod? I turned off GPM, set my laptop to use /dev/psaux and a ps2 type. I told it to use Emulate3Buttons, but when I try to hit both buttons so I can paste it treats it as a 3rd click of the first button. Thoughts? This is driving me crazy now.
