Hi all,
I’m new to Gentoo (and relatively new to Linux in general). I’m
running it in VMWare as I evaluate systems to ultimately replace
Windows. I really like the speed of Gentoo and think the portage
system is excellent.
Yesterday I emerged gnome-light and am able to startx as root, but not
as a normal user. This seems like a permissions problem to me.
However, I have not found anything on Google to point me in the write
direction.
Please find attached my X11 start up log from my regular user account.
Hopefully someone can help.

(**) Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
(EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/mouse
No such file or directory.
(EE) Mouse0: cannot open input device
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Mouse0"
Here is the problem. This path should probably be /dev/input/mice
