[Bug 145186] Re: mouse pointer disappears when using external display (i855GM)
Thanks for letting us know the issue is gone. Feel free to reopen if it reappears. For the hotkey issue, please file a new bug (sometimes those are kernel issues). ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- mouse pointer disappears when using external display (i855GM) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145186] Re: mouse pointer disappears when using external display (i855GM)
I just tried to check for this behavior using Hardy Heron alpha 6, as requested by unggnu. Unfortunately, I was unable to do so because the keystroke combination (Fn+F8 on this Dell keyboard) for switching between displays was non-functional. If I started the liveCD with the projector hooked up, it would automatically go into dual-display mode (internal and external simultaneously). If I started the liveCD with the projector disconnected, then there was no way to indicate that the system should attempt to find it and no attempt was automatically undertaken. This is surely an unrelated bug, but nonetheless an obstacle to further testing with Hardy. But, as I mentioned in my previous post, the problem seems to have been fixed now in Gutsy. I can no longer reproduce the error with my fully- patched system. The only glitch is the strange pointer misrendering when in "external display only" mode under Gutsy (can't test this under Hardy until I can toggle modes there). Thanks again to all.

[I sent the following message as an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but it didn't get posted here for some reason... perhaps because it had three files attached to it... -Jason] Bryce, See attached... I tried to reproduce the error so you could maybe see some helpful error message in the Xorg.0.log file. But now, of course, the pointer just happily appears at all times, even after multiple cycles of the external/dual/internal displays. Sorry. But, hey, at least it's working now! :o) Again, I'm using the most current patches against Kubuntu 7.10. I honestly can't recall whether X was updated since the last time I submitted an update on this bug. Thanks so much for all your efforts.

The Hardy Heron Alpha series is currently under development and contains an updated version of the -intel driver. You can download and try the new Hardy Heron Alpha release from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/ . You should be able to test the new -intel driver using the LiveCD. If you can, please verify if this bug still exists or not and report back your results. General information regarding the release can also be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks. ** Summary changed: - mouse pointer disappears when using external display + mouse pointer disappears when using external display (i855GM) -- mouse pointer disappears when using external display (i855GM) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
