That being said, when I do use the udev rule file, stopping the gpm daemon via init.d script and than calling gpm via: # gpm -m /dev/input/mouse0 -t ps2 doesn't seem have any effect. I've tried with /dev/input/mice and with types "imps2" "pnp" and "ms" as well to no effect. Might I have to somehow modify the usb mouse driver module to recognize this device? Is there a table that I simply need to make an entry into?
