[expert] Invisible mouse pointer with XFree 4.0

2000-06-14 Thread Tom Wike

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

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.

Bonne chance.

[expert] Invisible mouse pointer with XFree 4.0

2000-06-13 Thread Olivier Dugeon

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)
