you could:

$ info gm2

(or from within emacs via M-x info)

or access the web version from:

http://www.nongnu.org/gm2

I tried that. No go. Generic info page comes up that does not
include any references to gm2 anywhere.

The info page may not have been installed, or it may not have been indexed,
or it may have been installed in a library that's not in your info search
path. Can you search for the info file and see if it exists somewhere?

find / -name "gm2*.info"

Somebody may know how to add /opt/gm2/share/info to your info path, but the
easiest thing to do is to find your default location(s) and copy it to one
of them. Look in /usr/share/info or /usr/local/share/info. If you have
*.info files in either of those copy the gm2.info file from /opt/ into one
of these and then (also as root)

install-info gm2.info dir

This updates the info directory so the system can find it. After that you
should indeed be able to do

info gm2

and display your info file. Emacs is also good for display and navigating
info files via M-x info
