If you tell X to > use the gpm mouse (/dev/gpmdata), you should be okay. Hmm, long time ago I test this (because that was like this I configure my i386 boxe) but it did not work.

Because with the same software config (gdm + xfce + xfree86-4.1) the same problem occurs on my parisc (b180) and not on my i386 (on which I also use /dev/psaux as mouse device)? (sorry (I would be of better help) I never have time to investigate in more details this problem. And I do not remember exactly if it was always there or if it appears with a new release of xfree86 or with a new kernel release? Is some one can refresh my memory?) Joel
