GPM ported

[Troy Davis]

Hi,
Here is a diff that moves /var (/var/tmp, /var/run) and /tmp to a ramfs instead of fat media. Attached is the diff - dslinux-var-tmp-ramfs.diff

This diff is needed for the below port of gpm, gpm means general purpose mouse and is the mouse support for linux in the console. 

Download the original source gpm-1.20.1.tar.gz from http://ftp.schottelius.org/pub/linux/gpm/ and attached to the email is the diff file - gpm.diff.

start gpm with 
gpm -m /dev/mouse0 -t ps2 &

currently since the touchpad only emulates a 1 button mouse all you can do is move the text cursor around and a doubleclick will highlight the word, and a triple click with highlight the line.

Also some work needs to be done to start it as a daemon process on startup etc if prefered.

I still need some good ideas and probably some help with changing the touchpad mousedriver and/or using dpad/buttons for combination mouse buttons etc, to make this more functional.

Thanks,
Troy Davis(GPF)
