7 I can't find easy to read docs on devfs yet, so rather than fix it
8 directly, I've simply told gpm to use the real mouse device in this file:
9 /etc/rc.d/config/basic
10
11 add to the mouse line the options:
12 "-m /dev/MOUSEDEV"
13 where "MOUSEDEV" is the actual dev for your system. I have a ps/2 mouse,
14 so my line looks like: /dev/psaux
15 I do the same inside the XF86Config file.
