[expert] Invisible mouse pointer with XFree 4.0
Olivier, Hi - have the same video card, same problem after installing Mdk7.1 and using XFree86 4.0 - in the file /etc/X11/XF86config and in the file /etc/X11/XF86config-4, under the 'Device' section there should be a line about 'sw_cursor' - uncomment out this line in these 2 files then restart the X server - should work fine Olivier Dugeon writes: > Hi, > > I just install Mdk7.1 with an G400 double head video card.

Re: [expert] Invisible mouse pointer with XFree 4.0
I had this problem before. It stemmed from my 7.1 beta install detecting only half of my video RAM. But this may or may not be your problem. ;) I edited the XFree86-4 config file by had with the correct amount of RAM and it worked fine. -- Stephen Bonne chance.

[expert] Invisible mouse pointer with XFree 4.0
Hi, I just install Mdk7.1 with an G400 double head video card. Under XFree 3.3.6 all work fine. But under XFree4.0, the mouse pointer are invisible. xsetroot -cursor (font or bitmap) give no error but no amelioration. What's wrong? My mouse is an MouseManPlus from Logictech (well found by XFree 3.3.6 and imwheel) Olivier -- FTR&D/DAC/ARP Technopole Anticipa | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 2, Avenue Pierre Marzin | Phone: +(33) 2 96 05 28 80 F-22307 LANNION | Fax:+(33) 2 96 05 37 84
