Hi

OK another issue trying to get X going on these boxes. It seems to be a 
HP issue but if anyone knows a solution that would be great.
I am using the iLo interface and the hpmouse-1.1.0-73.noarch.rpm driver. 
As root i can startx and all is well, however when starting X as the 
oracle user it fails with the following error

Exec fail for command "/opt/hp/hpmouse/hpmouse-helper" Permission Denied

This is indeed only accessible by root it seems so does anyone know how 
non root users are supposed to use the mouse on HP boxes?

thanks
