@#29:
Nice trick!
@rvm:
Even if this is a distro patch which triggers this ghost moving of the cursor,
you mention twice that smplayer receives the mouse event and shows the
cursor. Specifically, that the patch causes the mouse event to be sent to
smplayer, but that smplayer has the decision
well i've found a little better workaround for this
go to preferences - interface - floating control then set Margin value
to 1
now you can move the cursor to the lower right corner instead and it
wont bother you at all

Move the cursor to the upper left corner and leave it there. That works
for me.

The activity on this bug looks as if the bug in gnome-screensaver, which
is surely at the root of this mess, has been resolved:

Might we not adopt the way VLC inhibits gnome-screensaver? Also, isn't

this bug is very related to #505149. In short, we ship a patch to
mplayer that disables the screensaver by moving the mouse a bit every
few seconds. This patch (not upstream of course) is causing this side
effect.

I don't get it. Shouldn't the original, unpatched mplayer behave
correctly with the -stop-xscreensaver switch?

I read all 21 comments and neither I'm sure who is the culprit nor what is the
remedy...
Disabling -stop-screensaver is obviously not useful.

The -stop-screensaver option may not work. According to the mplayer
manpage, it's a problem of the screensavers:

If your screensaver supports neither the XSS nor

smplayer's role to hack mplayer's hacks. The bug should return to

(it would be nice if some Ubuntu dev at least looked at it...)

I cannot confirm that.
P.S. I use pure ALSA output.
P.S.2. Pure ALSA doesn't mean ALSA through PulseAudio.

Anyway disabling Screensaver disable fixes it. But then the

As stated in previous posts, the problem is caused by a ubuntu patch in
the mplayer package. That patch tries to avoid the screensaver to turn
on by moving the mouse cursor from time to time. smplayer receives that
mouse event and shows the cursor because it thinks it has been moved by
the user.
Yeah I saw that, but it does not seem like mplayer by itself makes the
cursor appear. Maybe default is to *not* to disable screensave in
mplayer, or maybe mplayer does not show the cursor during very small
movements.

Ok, I think I found out where the problem is. It seems it's related to
the option to disable the screensaver.
If you turn off the option Disable screensaver (under
Preferences-General-Video) the problem doesn't happen.
When that option is on, smplayer passes to mplayer the option -stop-
I can confirm this with some additional details:
- the mouse pointer behaves like this also on the black borders, if the
option is turned on in smplayer
- if you launch smplayer, open a movie, and then do not touch the mouse after
it starts playing, the pointer behaves normally. Once the mouse
If the problem is not present in jaunty, I guess the problem may be
caused by the new version of Qt in karmic.
I'll try to install karmic on a virtual machine and see if I can fix the
issue.
