Plan a) Does gpm work in text mode? If yes, "cat /etc/conf.d/gpm"
and see what device it lists as being used.
Plan b) Start off with the command "ls -al -R /dev > list.txt" and
view list.txt with your favourite editor or file-viewer.
Look under "/dev/input". Also check for "/dev/mouse" or
"/dev/mice" or "/dev/psaux" or "/dev/misc/". You should find
something somewhere.
