I have not had any luck getting console mouse support to work with Fedora for 
quite a few releases now.  BUT, the muse struck me, and I gave it another 
chance...

I did the following:
1. "yum install gpm"
2. "/etc/init.d/gmp start"
3. Pressed "Ctrl | Alt | F2"
4. "su" into root.
5. Started "mc"
6. Result?  For the first time in years, I have console mouse support in Fedora 
:)  I can do everything with the mouse in "mc" in Console mode that I can do 
with the mouse when I am in graphical mode.

But, you might already have tried all of this...
