Just choose glint.

By lspci command. Should be PCI:00:01:00.

/dev/amigamouse or
/dev/gpmdata if you use gpm.

Are you sure that gdm is installed ? Try restarting gdm manually by:
/etc/init.d/gdm restart

Check /var/log/XFree86.log for errors, there's almost everything you want
to know.

I don't know I've also problems with internal floppy drive under
apus. If you have Amiga FFS partition you can try to mount it.

BTW. (I wrote it somewhere) Check XFree86.log for lines begining with
(EE) they indicate errors, read them carefully...
