Section InputDevice of XF86Config is of course missing the line Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata" which is present in XF86Config. Have you tried to use "REPEAT_TYPE=raw" ?? instead of imps2 for your gpm driver.. it seems to be a problem in the imps2 gpm driver, but using raw works fine for me. I'm looking around for patch to fix the driver but haven't found anything yet. Naz I confirm it works using raw for repeat type. It works as a workaround (and is of course sufficient for my needs). If you need me for more tests, just speak. I'm going to drop the Severity of this bug since there is a workaround now. I think doubling drivers will always cause problems actually. Xfree needs straight data from the mouse not interpeted data from gpm gpm is for console and not for x anyway. |
