I've never found the fixes to help in my situation. I don't use a mouse in console very often so I just start gpm when I need it and stop it when I move back to X. kent -- The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. --Albert Einstein

* Daniel de los Reyes [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2001-09-09 19:50): That's exactly the way it is... I went through all the trouble to get it to work with X 3.3 to find that it doesn't seem to work the same way with X 4 It should work the same way with X3 as it does with X4. I have used gpm with both versions of X, I'm currently using it with X4.0.3. I've got a PS2 Logitech cordless wheelman mouse (acts exactly the same as a Microsoft Intellimouse). Here are the relevant sections from my gpm.conf and XF86Config-4: ## /etc/gpm.conf device=/dev/psaux responsiveness= repeat_type=raw type=imps2 append= ## /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 [...] Section InputDevice # Identifier and driver Identifier Mouse1 Driver mouse Option CorePointer Option ProtocolImPS/2 Option Device /dev/gpmdata Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 [...] I have a similar setup at work, also using X4.0.3, but using a PS2 Intellimouse. Hope this helps, Sean -- Sean Quinlan ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
