i don't know whether this is the correct group, but decided to start here.

i have RH9, kernel 2.4.20-19.9, latest Xfree86 (afik).  mouse is PS/2, 
microsoft intellipoint, seems that it's correctly identified in the conf file.

mouse controls are adjusted for maximum sensitivity.  if i just boot the
system, don't restart GPM, mouse response is very slow.  if i restart GPM,
mouse response is fast.  if i include 'service gpm restart' in the bash profile,
mouse response is fast on boot-up.

monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected through a Belkin KVM switch.
if i switch to another machine, and come back to the RH9 box, mouse 
response is mostly erratic.  to recover, i must restart GPM from a 
command line.  Belkin tell me to 'restart GPM' (lotta help -that- was).

i can't see why response is so slow on boot-up, but good on service
restart.  i don't understand what happens to gpm when i switch back
and forth through the KVM.  can anyone offer help or suggestions?
