But someone broke the /dev/input/mouseX <-> USB mouse interaction in 2.6.11-bk7 and my two-headed system with two X servers were manually set up to use the distinct mouse devices so the two heads do not interfere. No wonder gpm works, it reads /dev/input/mice. Starting only one X and using /dev/input/mice I found no problems. Setting it back to /dev/input/mouse0, the mouse pointer is dead again. Someone deserves a mousebite... Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi
