console/gpm mouse breakage 2.6.3-rc1-mm1

just went to 2.6.3 this morning due to frustrations with my PDC20265 causing
lockups... hoping that 2.6 solves this problem...

and now i'm having trouble where gpm doesn't work right... cilcks don't
register as a click event. Yes, it works fine in X (using GPM in repeater
mode, -R raw. the old hack I used to allow X to use both mice, as well as
eliminating the gpm crashes every couple times I switched btwn X and console
mode.)

instead I get characters echoed to my terminal
left click: Q
right click: W
middle click: E (plus some control character... i haven't tried a capture and
hexdump yet)

also, my PS/2 mouse (MS IMPS/2) no longer works. from any /dev node I've
tried.

I do most of my work in console mode, and having no console mouse for pastes
and such is a pain.

This is probably some old issue hashed and rehashed, but after reading the
LKML pretty much all the time for the last couple years, I don't remember
this problem being mentioned.

as another problem, tho I believe this is also well known, sensors don't
work, as i2c-proc doesn't exist anymore and there are no /proc/ entries for
sensors.
