Thank you for continuing to develop/maintain efl/enlightenment.

I just upgraded this week to 1.26.0 and 0.25.0

my mouse pointer seems to disappear upon returning from xscreensaver
lock - but only over empty background or the title bar, over some open
windows it seems fine, a restart of enlightenment restores it.

bu5hm4n saw this and put in a fix - so did i... this would require poking around e_pointer.c and seeing what is going on with the pointer stack and printing out what is happening. i can't do that remotely from here for you...
you'd have to add printf's when pointers are pushed and popped and see.

I looked at e_pointer.c but I wasn't clear on what to print, when, and where to look for the output.

second possibly unrelated issue
sometimes when I launch bzflag my framerate drops very low (very choppy
panning) and restarting x restores it.
(I can't really see the choppy framerate in glxgears - which reports 60
fps even at very large gear sizes)

This is probably your nvidia driver being unhappy about e auto-disabling compositing (turning compositor off) and then back on again. this is very driver-dependent. all e does is disable redirection when a fullscreen window is there after a short period of it being fullscreen and thus getting out of the way entirely (and then turning compositing back on and redirection when it stops being fullscreen). the compositor has a setting for this "dont composite
fullscreen windows". try turning that off.

Other than that... That would be a problem between you and your nvidia
driver. :) how an application renders is entirely up to the application and the api's it uses to draw. all e sees is a pixmap that represents the bitmap of the output fo the app and it maps that to a texture and renders it. i might guess that the driver has somehow chosen to draw to different buffer types for
compositing vs non-compositing and ends up in some super slow mode.

ended up going back to 1.24.3 and 0.24.2 - the devil I know

third likely unrelated issue
I can no longer get to the linux console with control + alt + F1

i wonder if this is os configuration dependent - logind/systemd etc. and the fact that e opens input devices via elput. this seems to have had a bi-product
of breaking the vmware driver in xorg at least ... somehow.

-Delput=false

and rebuild e?

This did fixed the alt + F1 for me both with 1.26.0/0.25.0 and with 1.26.1/0.25.1 - both with a couple warnings at compile time

Also random trivia - how do I disable the startup sound?

elementary config tool- audio settings. mute options.

thank you

this is on ubuntu 20.04 with nvidia (GeForce GTX 1050 Ti) driver version
460.91.03
