You may want to try using busmouse.

Now with Stormix you have to be careful because gpm is started
always so you either run gpmconfig and use in XF86Config
/dev/gpmdata or you kill gpm for good .

Note.If gpm is running X won't take over so any configuration you
might've
made to XF86Config are useless since they'll be ignored or conflict with
gpm . IMHO .

That's correct, gpm overrides any substitution set inside the Mouse section of the XF86Config file.
If you wanted to modify any mouse configuration settings directly you would have to edit the

/etc/gpm.conf

 or

dpkg --purge  gpm

and then edit the XF86Config file.
