Description of problem: most of the time when I startup I get the login screen (gdm) whitout a mouse pointer, If I login the mouse is working (move, scroll) but I see no pointer. Selecting a new mouse pointer makes no difference. Maybe it has something todo with fact that I upgrades from fc4 to fc5. I have other system x386 same xorg.conf that works fine. It makes no difference if I use a USB mouse instead of PS2 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all latest updates have been applied How reproducible: I would say 9 out of 10 times that I login Steps to Reproduce: 1. reboot system 2. 3. Actual results: login screen without mouse pointer Expected results: login screen with mouse pointer Additional info: problem was probably related to version of nvidia driver after upgrading to nvidia driver 1.0-8756 the problem has disappeared problem was probably related to version of nvidia driver after upgrading to nvidia driver 1.0-8756 the problem has disappeared If you were originally using the "nv" driver, supplied with Fedora Core, then this is indeed a bug in the driver. It's being tracked in a different bug report already though. Once there is a patch available from upstream that fixes it, we'll probably release an updated driver. Until then, those who wish to use the OSS driver can use: Option "swcursor" That works around the problem. |
