I reported a bug a while ago about the mouse pointer graphic getting out of sync with the actual hot spot of the mouse pointer. I've since updated X server and the problem is reduced but still present.
The problem isn't gone, however it's slightly changed. Instead of jumping 8 pixels and having the mouse pointer be offset 0-7 pixels the jump increment is now 4 pixels. This is much less intrusive however it's still broken. The mouse pointer is still off by as much as 3 pixels. And the jumping is still somewhat annoying compared with the smooth scrolling of old. What's odd is it only seems to happen in 640x480 and above. The behaviour is different at 320x240. Under 320x240 the screen still pans in increments of 4 but the mouse cursor warps back 4 pixels when it does. So the mouse stays aligned. Under 640x480 the hot point is up to four pixels ahead of the screen panning even though the graphic doesn't move, then when the screen pans four pixels it catches up with the mouse pointer graphic. I mentioned in my original report that the jump scrolling is a terrible misfeature. It's visually distracting and very annoying. Is there any way to turn it off and get back the slick smooth scrolling that xfree86 v3 had? -- greg _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
