I have a similar problem. I am using the gpm repeater(/dev/gpmdata)
to pass the input of two pointers, a keypad pointer(/dev/ttyS0) and a
mouse(/dev/psaux) to gpm and X.  The pointer is more responsive so I
have lowered it with gpm and that works find under the tty's.

gpm -m /dev/psaux -t ps2 -M -m /dev/ttyS0 -t ms -r 2

However X does not seem to pay attention to what gpm has set for the
pointer responsiveness so the cursor is super sensitive with the
pointer and normal with the mouse.

# XF86Config pointer section
Section "Pointer"
    Protocol "MouseSystems"
    Device      "/dev/gpmdata"
    Emulate3Buttons
    Emulate3Timeout    50
EndSection

Any suggestions on how to set the separate responsiveness under X?
I have looked at the XInput options for XFree but they only allow 
one or the other and not both simultaneously.
