I'm not sure you have a completly configuerd mouse device.
-t means "type" try one of: -t ps2 or -t ms
this assumes a default link in your device folder.
1.to check: ls -al /dev/mouse
if no link is present:
2.ln -sf /dev/psaux /dev/mouse #<-ps2 mouse
or
ln -sf /dev/ttySx[*] /dev/mouse #<-serial mouse
# [*] ttyS0=com1 in dos or ttyS1=com2
lastly remove the -R switch, x11 has problems with it.
so here is what a complete rc.local /or whatever/ might look like:
/path/to/gpm -t "type" -m /dev/mouse
