=== ERROR ===: [/usr/src/other/gpm-1.20.0/src/mice.c(1727)]:
imps2: PS/2 mouse failed init
=== ERROR ===: [/usr/src/other/gpm-1.20.0/src/mice.c(1727)]:

When loading gpm and moving the mouse the driver bombs on load. Also,
sometimes it will fail with:

=== ERROR ===: [/usr/src/other/gpm-1.20.0/src/mice.c(1755)]:
imps2: Auto-detected unknown mouse type 250, assuming standard PS/2

Options used to load gpm:

gpm -m /dev/psaux -t imps2 -b 9600"

* Note: For some reason I have to specify baud rate (?)

Any ideas? :)

Thanks,
