I think what David was getting at was that gpm will interfere with the X
pointer. Unless you are using the mouse on the console, your best bet
might be to disable gpm or uninstall it. Alternatively, you can
configure X to use gpm as its source for mouse movements, which requires
a few changes to XF86Config. A quick Google will find these for you,
HTH,
