BUGS
The gpm server may have problems interacting with X. if your mouse is a single-open device (i.e. a bus mouse), you should kill gpm before starting X, or use the -R option (see above). To kill gpm just invoke gpm -k. This
problem doesn't apply to serial mice.
Since I stopped and disabled gpm, my xorg has never hanged.
