Sorry, the last test I do on my b180 and gpmdata as mouse driver does not
work :)
(xfree86-4.1)

Hmm I just notice this funny behaviour:
I start gdm, I login -> the cursor work normaly :)
I quit my X session -> the cursor doesn't work any more ...
I would like to see at the console if I can see some error messages, so I
swich to sti mode (CTRL+ALT f1)... ok that works. No error messages, so I
can come back to gdm login screen (CTRL+ALT f7), oh the cursor move again
normaly ?

Any idea?

Thanks in advance,
    Joel
