Thanks Jesper. That made me read again and realised that it was the
mouse protocol that works in XFree but not in xorg. I removed
xserver-xorg, deleted /etc/X11/xorg.conf and reinstalled it. This
time the configuration looked different:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "gpmdata"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
I just had to change "gpmdata" to "/dev/gpmdata" and now it works.
Regards
Johann
