yes, installing gpm pointing to psaux and editing XF86config file to point to gpmdata does make the mouse work in console (great!) and X (useless) since I can't even control the mouse pointer/buttons (moves to fast and does strange things..) editing gpmconfig doesn't help since I don't know what

To quote Rick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, # Option "Protocol""Intellimouse" Just to be sure, the protocol for an Intellimouse-compatible mouse on the PS/2 port is "IMPS/2". I dunno if your mouse is on a serial, USB, or PS/2 port, but I figured it was worth mentioning. Dave
