    <thetext>programs that use mouse in linux VC (through libgpm) have lost this feature wit the new libgpm. libgpm contains code that always fails if only not TERM=xterm.

---
login into a linux VC, start mc, try to do smth with the mouse. It doesn\&apos;t react upon mouse actions.

The same thing in GNU Emacs started in a VC. There, you are able to see the error messages printed by libgpm (in \&apos;*Messages*\&apos; buffer: C-x b ...): they very similar to those printed in Eterm+mc (see #1086).

    <thetext>Now the situation is better, but not perfect.

$ rpm -q mc gpm libgpm; rpm -V mc gpm libgpm
mc-4.5.99a-alt2
gpm-1.20.1-alt0.2rc1
libgpm-1.20.1-alt0.2rc1

After running /sbin/pam_console_apply, the mouse works in mc and in links in linux VC. (That\&apos;s not good that after upgrading gpm, the permissions are not correct for /dev/gpmctl.)

Ctrl-O in mc doesn\&apos;t work as expected (doesn\&apos;t show the hidden screen), probably because of the debugging garbage from libgpm. (For instance, start man rpm in the backscreen of MC, then press Ctrl-O a pair of times, and you won\&apos;t see the man-page.)

GNU Emacs still reports errors, this is for sure because of the debugging messages printed out by /usr/bin/mev.

Please, disable debugging output of libgpm.

    <thetext>Running man is a bad example. Well, simply a shell prompt should be there, in xterm it is there, un linux VC thje screen is empty.
