The mouse works fine in win95 so it isn't a hardware problem. This problem has me
stumped. I redid the mouse configuration, stopped and started gpm, and the mouse
started working again in both terminal mode and Xwindows (I know that xwindows doesn't
use gpm), but then it froze on me again. Something doesn't seem stable.
