Hrmmm... what I see here is:
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 08:44 0 -> /dev/input/mou=
se0
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 08:44 1 -> socket:[643]
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 08:44 3 -> /dev/gpmdata

or...
moria:/var/log# ls -l /proc/`pidof gpm`/fd
total 0
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 13:58 0 -> /dev/psaux
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 13:58 1 -> socket:[598]
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 13:58 2 -> socket:[605]
lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Jun 24 13:58 3 -> /dev/gpmdata

  My copies of gpm use fd 0 for the source device.

  That's all correct.

  Also correct.

  Hrmm... can you stop gpm and manually start it with -D and -v 9=20
something like this should work:

gpm -t imps2 -m /dev/psaux -D -v 9=20

  If nothing obvious comes out of the error stream there... can you also
do a:
strace -o trace.log -s 1024 <GPM command from above>

  I'm curious what happens around when it opens /dev/psaux...

- Can you send output from 'lsmod'?
