usage with libgpm
Hello.

the mouse. $_mouse = (microsoft) and $_mouse_dev = "
/dev/gpmdata" works, but I thought this was not supposed to be necessary when libgpm is used.
As I said already, the gpm and raw mouse accesses are mutually exclusive in most cases, which means if $_mouse_dev works, libgpm cannot be used in that environment (with a few minor exceptions). Apparently your environment is root-console. Setting $_console=(0) or not giving dosemu a root privs will make the libgpm access possible.

Ok, that's good to know. Why is it that libgpm is not available as root console?
