After probably a good hour of mucking about with this when I installed potato from scratch about 6 months ago, I concur with using msc as the default repeater. On my Thinkpad 600E, this is not only the only configuration that worked, but the Z-axis button worked automatically as a middle mouse button (which according to the Linux Laptops page documentation at the time wasn't supposed to work at all). Do we need to start collecting a database of what combinations of configurations work in which situations? Perhaps there are other configurations that simply won't work using msc (or ms3) repeater types. If we knew about them, we could make gpmconfig a bit smarter.
