Try this:

        Identifier  "Mouse1"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux" or /dev/mouse if a symlink to
/dev/psaux
        Option      "Protocol" "imPS/2"
        Option      "Resolution" "200"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "SendCoreEvents" "Yes"
        Option      "CorePointer" "Yes"
     Option "BaudRate"          "9600"
     Option "SampleRate"        "200"

I use this with gpm as well no problems, but with gpm you need a patch to
properly kickstart imPS/2 for console.
