imps2 should work in this case.

I usually run gpm with the option '-R msc' and then configure X to read
data from /dev/gpmdata, with protocol MouseSystems:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "MouseSystems"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
EndSection
Please, let me know if this works!
