For the record (it does not appear to be the case here but ...):

I found some strange combinations where the mouse will hang
with some on-board PS/2 until something is being read from the port.

I.e. gpm would work fine but XFree 4.0.x won't until one either uses
the mouse under console or uses something like
"head -c 1 /dev/psaux > /dev/null 2>&1"
(don't know about XFree 4.2, etc.)

Cheers,
