Seems to be a gpm problem. See what I've got in my syslog:

*** warning [client.c(183)]: Failed gpm connect attempt by uid 500 for vc 0

I ran MC under debugger in linux console both with screen and in plain 
console. When I am not running screen everything is normal. If I start 
screen I get the above message both in syslog and printed on the console 
... but the Gpm_Open() call doesn't report error. I'll try to research why
this happens but it is obvious that this problem is not MC related.
