mouse freezes on minimal install

[Member black-clover]

Hello,
I’m trying to install a minimal AntiX distro on a Compaq C500 laptop.
I have installed the core version, updated, upgraded, and then installed the following packages:
xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg-video-intel
xserver-xorg-input-synaptic
xserver-xorg-input-mouse
xserver-xorg-input-kbd
xinit
policykit-1
jwm

Now, if I login as root and use startx, I get into jwm and everything works fine.
However, if I login as a normal user, once I get into jwm the mouse and system freeze.
I assumed it was an authority issue and tried to use the policykit-1 configuration that I use on my debian box but to no avail.
I have a startup command in jwm to launch policykit agent at startup.
Any advice on how to troubleshoot the problem?

Install xserver-xorg-legacy and edit /etc/X11/Xrapper.config
