I have a MS "Wheel Mouse Optical USB and PS/2 Compatible" mouse and am
using the UBS-to-PS adapter because my KVM does not have USB.
gpm's set to the imps2 protocol and the repeater is in raw mode.
X is set to the IMPS/2 protocol. Here is the section from my
XF86Config-4 file:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
