moused flickering
With moused enabled or started by a USB mouse, moving the mouse pointer on a console screen causes other characters on the screen to flicker. It's not very visible on a mostly-black screen, but run lptest to get some text and mouse the mouse around. This seems new. It's possible it's a memory problem with the video board, but it seems unlikely because there aren't any other noticeable problems. This machine is running i386 8-stable. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I see it here, but it's not so much a flicker at least as I would describe it. If you hover your mouse over a character it appears to add at least 1 px width to the character, and only on certain characters, m or M for example. -- Adam Vande More ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

On mine, it's characters that are near but not under the mouse pointer that flicker off and on quickly. Move the mouse in a circle and random characters all over the screen blink quickly off and then on.___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
