gpm

Bugs and Problems
=================

The `gpm' server may have problems interacting with X: if your mouse
is a single-open device (i.e. a bus mouse), you should kill `gpm'
before starting X, or use the `-R' option (see above). To kill `gpm'
just invoke `gpm -k'. This problem doesn't apply to serial mice.

Two instances of gpm can't run on the same system. If you have two
mice use the `-M' option (see above).

While the current console is in graphic mode, `gpm' sleeps until
text mode is back (unless `-R' is used). Thus, it won't reply to
clients. Anyways, it is unlikely that mouse-eager clients will spur out
in hidden consoles.
