Xorg.0.log
Still there in 6.12.2-9.fc11. Come to think of it, when was the last time we changed anything to do with the hardware cursor? I cannot remember if the bug was there in 6.12.1.

I cannot > remember if the bug was there in 6.12.1. I think it could be some kind of discoordination of mouse coordinates. Let's see what Dave thinks about it. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Still there in xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-19.fc12.x86_64. It's not a big deal, just... strange. I figure nobody sees it because we ship with panel on top edge by default. The plot thickens on this: xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.12.2-21.fc12.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.99-28.20090804.fc12.x86_64 kernel-2.6.31-0.125.rc5.git2.fc12.x86_64 Now the cursor moves so it's halfway visible, as it should. However, there's still 1-pixel wide band where it's buggy. In other words, here's a scenario: - Start outside and move up - When the point of the arrow just touches the edge, the cursor turns into double-arrow and is placed incorrectly: this is the bug! - However, if you continue pressing up just by 1 pixel, the cursor will warp and assume the normal position (halfway visible double-arrow). - If you move pointer down, the cursor will move normally and then convert into correctly positioned single arrow without any warping. So, the bug now has a hysteresis: only occurs on the way up, not down. Created attachment 356834 [details]

I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.] This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Could you please reply to the previous question? If you won't reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you. [Note please, that this is machine generated comment for large amount of bugs; due to some technical issues, it is possible we've missed some of the responses -- it is happens, please, just a make a comment about that; that we will see. Thank you] Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released for the reporter's distribution.

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. I sent that D600 back to mothership a while ago. Something was busted in the handling of hardware cursor on Radeon. Not a problem on Intel. |
