Hmmm... well, I have all those options enabled, but it didn't help any. dmesg
shows that the trackpad is found and initialized, etc, but it just doesn't
work! Xpmac doesn't use it, and I tried numerous gpm lines trying to get it to
work, to no avail. dmesg reports that it's mouse3, so I even tried
gpm -m /dev/input/mouse3 -t imps2: results in no function
gpm -m /dev/input/mouse3 -t bm: results in no function
gpm -m /dev/mouse -t imps2: external USB trackball works great, but still no
trackpad

Assuming that you have not changed gpm's defaults, and that you have linked both
/dev/input/mouse and /dev/input/usbmouse to /dev/mouse, all you should need to do
is "gpm -t imps2", and that should allow gpm to take input from both your external
usb mouse and the trackpad.  If you have X use /dev/mouse, then it should also
beable to take input from both sources (it works for my Pismo).
