When logged into a console as normal user (michal, uid 501), running
Midnight Commander barfs at me this message:
warning: [gpm.c(857)]:
Failed gpm connect attempt by uid 501 for vc /dev/vc/0

The message is as copied from the screen, so maybe a little garbled. The
MC screen then becomes scrolled up, and mc is therefore not usable.
Indeed, I have no right to access /dev/vc/0 (root|root).
This is an upgrade to 9.0 from clean install of 8.2 (download edition).
Midnight Commander works OK when logged in a console as root or for any
user under X terminal.
