After looking into it, it's I'm fairly certain that this can be resolved by rebuilding the gpm configuration file (/etc/gpm-root.conf) Overall, though, being that you don't use gpm in XWindows, you can basically ignore it. I use gpm to drive my mouse in my console because I abhor graphical logins - so if it was ME having the errors, I'd be reconfiguring my gpm configs... -- Mon Dec 9 06:40:00 EST 2002 6:40am up 10:25, 5 users, load average: 0.07, 0.63, 0.68 .o0 linux user:267497 0o. -------------------------------- | __ __ | kühn media australia | / \ /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kühn | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | ;"""/ / | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU -------------------------------- Coralament*Best Grötens*Liebe Grüße*Best Regards*Elkorajn Salutojn Experiments must be reproducible; they should all fail in the same way.
