I think you should strongly suspect this syntax and double check it.
Perhaps this FIRST_MOUSE should be bitwise or'ed to the INIT parameter at the
end of the call.  Or, maybe it should be in the "hp-hil" string.  I don't
have the manuals in front of me now or I could be more sure of what I am
saying but it seems that the first parameter to gopen should ONLY contain
the device file used for I/O.
