GPM wants to see /dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/cua0
Quite possably you need to remove the old link in /dev/ for the mouse which
would be 'mouse -> cua0' shown with 'ls -al mouse' and make a new link to
ttyS0 with the following commands. Of course killing gpm first "might" be a
good idea.
kill `pidof gpm`
cd /dev
rm mouse
ln -s ttyS0 mouse
gpm can also be started as 'gpm -R -m /dev/mouse -t msc'
the option above is -t (type) Mouse Systems.
As to the nfs problem you will need to give more details, i use nfs between
two machines here, one with 2.0.36 and the other 2.2.4 and no problems.
(kernel versions of course).

Ah!, shots in the dark do work wonders sometimes. ;-)
