I think newer Kernels have a new input layer. I can't really tell you the details since Linux on a PowerMac is rather new for me, but the following line in gpm.conf works for me (PowerMac 7600, stock Debian Kernel 2.2.19): device=/dev/input/mice You might also want to put dev/mac_hid/mouse_button2_keycode = 87 dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode = 88 dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation = 1 or similar into /etc/sysctl.conf to get 3-button emulation (on F11 and F12 in this case).
