Dear VAK ,
I had tried all these things earlier , but it did not
work , but this is sure that if gpm is running mouse is not going to
work . But I am surprised to see that after gpm is stopped then also it
does not work . The the strangest thing is that when I start X-Windows
but some username and then run the gtk+-directb program with superuser
rights then the mouse works . Any ideas about that .
Regards
Dinesh
