can only use mouse in links as root

I can't get links to use the mouse as root, in root it works perfectly, but in non-root the mouse doesn't work. tried everything I could think of and google didn't help

here's the last part in /var/log/everything.log

here's the parameters in /etc/conf.d/gpm

GPM_ARGS="-m /dev/input/mice -t imps2 -3 -R"

I'm also in the tty and video user groups

Re: can only use mouse in links as root
