Or is there some way of getting the

This should work as root:
/etc/conf.d/gpm restart'
uh... shouldn't that be /etc/init.d/? and gpm is the console mouse
manager no? I lost my mouse in X. It was fine in console.

Yes, you are correct, it's "/etc/init.d/gpm restart" [oopsie].
I was working in another distro and mounted gentoo to get the path.
That works in the distro, but when the mouse in that distro
messes up in X, it makes the cursor go crazy in the virtual
consoles as well. I haven't had that problem in gentoo, however.
It wouldn''t hurt anything to try, however (he said
confidently). ;-}
