I think I should add one thing to my previous posting on the same subject.

Everything is perfectly OK with permissions for mouse device in /dev.
The system starts w/o any problems, users can log in (keyboard and
mouse work correctly). Next user logs out and when somebody wants again
to log in, (s)he sees frozen display. The only way (at least, I didn't
found any tool to do it) to recover from this is to switch workstation off
and on again. Normal reboot (machine stays on all the time) is not enough.
I expect one instance of Xserver changes the state of the mouse device and
next instance started by vuelogin is unable to reset device to the valid
state what end up with the message mentioned and server termination.

Like previously, please write directly if you have any suggestions.

Thanks,
Darek
