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

Please find attached my X11 start up log from my regular user

Here is the problem.  This path should probably be /dev/input/mice

Thanks, it worked as you said.

Your problem is related to your mouse. Check /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make 
sure a mouse (usually /dev/psaux) is set. Also make sure your regular 
user can access it. The easiest way to test that is as your user run 
"cat /dev/" then move the mouse around. You 
should see stuff appearing on the screen as you move it if everything is 
all right.
