Running a default install of F12 this works fine. Which version of
Fedora are you running? Have you checked that the service is started
when you boot? i.e. chkconfig --list gpm
You can check if starting the service solves the problem by running
service gpm restart
as root user (or sudo).
It's running. I can use GPM to copy and paste. The problem is that in
programs like Links and Midnight Commander, I get only copy and paste.
GPM is supposed to allow those programs to have full mouse support. I am
using Fedora 13.
