Paul,

You're really moving along with the linux now aren't you! Don't know about
the lib3dfxgl.so but you could try www.freshmeat.net. The GPM message is
reffering to the com port you have your /dev/mouse linked to. I suspect
you've upgraded your kernel from 2.0.x to 2.2x and with the new 2.2 series
kernel you don't use tty0 and tty1 you use ttsy0 and ttsy1 (or something
similar, read the kernel README). It won't cause a massive problem now but
you may as well change. Read the readme to be sure but you need to delete
/dev/mouse and then use 'ln -s /dev/ttys0 /dev mouse' to create a new
symbolic link.

Andy
