Hi,

I found the solution.

For future xf86config-ers who run into the same situation...

I've got a ps/2 mouse.

1.  /dev/mouse should point to /dev/psaux
2.  edit /etc/X11/XF86Config file 
    Protocol should be "PS/2"
    Device: "/dev/mouse"

3.  /etc/init.d/kdm start 

I suspect that xf86config, the program, does not have a PS/2 option.

Hi,

It doesn't appear to be a conflict with the shell.

startx also fires up enlightenment instead of kde.  

I've been using /etc/init.d/kdm start to start up kde.

The gpm -k trick doesn't work here.  :(

I had that problem I can't remember the fix.
But I have a workaround.
B4 you startx
Do this command
gpm -k
It'll kill the mouse in the shell.
So when you startx there's no conflict.
