For my generic ps2 type mouse.
I've done that and still no cursor. I booted knoppix and it detected the generic ps2 mouse at /dev/psaux and it worked correctly.
What do I check next?
Mark,
You probably need to change the mouse type. This is my /etc/gpm.conf and my ps/2 mouse works fine.
device=/dev/psaux
responsiveness=
repeat_type=
type=imps2
append=""
sample_rate=
Thanks, but that didn't work.

As well as imps2 in gpm.conf, you should have this in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, or at least the Protocol.
