Just FYI - all my boxes with PS/2 connector without connected mouse (and psaux compiled into kernel) stop responding to keyboard as soon as gpm starts. If I kill gpm, keyboard starts working again. I never investigated it, as I assumed that it is just admin mistake to run gpm without mouse. It should not behave this way? Best regards, Petr Vandrovec vandrove@vc.cvut.cz
