dear all,

i have an microsoft intellimouse 1.1a.  it has 3 buttons, plus a wheel.
it works great under gpm.

        device=/dev/psaux
        type=imps2
        append="-R imps2"     <-- this line was me fooling around

the problem is, when i start X, the mouse is definitely not happy.  random
mouse clicks happen when i simply just move the mouse.  it's awful.   when i
go back to console, it appears that gpm is also screwed up.

however, if i kill gpm before starting X, it works just fine under X.

        Section "InputDevice"
                 Identifier  "Mouse1"
                 Driver      "mouse"
                 Option "Protocol"    "imps/2"
                 Option "Device"      "/dev/psaux"
        EndSection

when i try to change gpm to use /dev/gpmdata, the mouse stops working under
gpm.  i've been at this for awhile.   can some kind soul tell me how to get
the mouse working under both console and X?  it's a bummer having to kill
gpm everytime i want to start X up.

thanks!
pete
