This is not there in Debian. I guess it is for RedHat.
Hello,
What type of mouse are you using and how did you setup the mouse in X?
Have you tried the mouse configuration setup command "mouseconfig"?

The only difference I have here is the type is just 'ps2' and
I have an a non-empty 'append'. These will both affect the
'input' side of gpm. So I think these differences are ok.

It is either a PS/2 mouse or a bus mouse. It can't be both. Unless it's a
raly old mouse it is not a bus mouse. You probably have a PS/2 mouse.
Look at the connector. Is it round or oval. How many pins on it.
Look at the bottom of the mouse. What does it say (manufacturer, model)? How

Matthias, Water, and Glyn -
I have a PS/2 Mouse hooked to a serial port. I don't know what
I/O it is, but windows tells me I have a PS/2 mouse at IRQ 12.
My bootup messages in debian linux say "PS/2 port recognized".
Also, that I have a 16550A at both IRQ3 & IRQ4. I know this mouse

Hi!
Do you have installed gpm, the consolse mouse driver? Then remove gpm or
kill it with gpm -k before starting X cause the X mouse driver can´t work if
gpm is running.

I do not recall who posted a problem with the mouse not working in X but
what fixed it for me is changing the options gpm runs as - it seems
