DB>I've got gpm loading at startup and I'm getting an error:
DB>
DB>Starting gpm: [PID] gpm: oops() invoked from gpn.c(257)
DB>Gpm already running as pid 522: No such file or directory
DB>
DB>Funny thing is, gpm seems to work fine.  So while it's failing to load it's still loading.  How's that for weird?
DB>
DB>Any ideas what's causing it?

It's likely some of the functions in our init system not cleaning up stale 
pids and locks.
