Description

Since this bugzilla report was filed, there have been several major updates in various components of the Xorg system, which may have resolved this issue. Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade their system to the latest version of their packages (at least F12Beta, but even better if the very latest versions). Please, if you experience this problem on the up-to-date system, let us now in the comment for this bug, or whether the upgraded system works for you. If you won't be able to reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you. [This is a bulk message for all open Fedora Rawhide Xorg-related bugs. 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.] Maybe some DGA issue, have to dig that. You confirm that you still have this issue with lastest fedora 12 package. I can confirm this still happens with: kernel-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64 libdrm-2.4.15-4.fc12.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-0.10.20091006git457646d73.fc12.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.7.1-7.fc12.x86_64 mesa-libGL-7.6-0.14.fc12.x86_64 I don't think this is DGA, all that is needed is creating an unmanaged (override redirect) window at pos 0x0, and then given that window a hidden cursor (implemented as a fully transparent cursor by most game sdk's afaik). Then switch tty, switch back and the default gnome right hand user mouse pointer is there in the middle of the screen and not moving (which might be because the app has grabbed the mouse and is drawing a software mouse cursor itself, which does still move). For example try quake3-demo ("yum install quake3-demo), which does use xf86vidmode to change the resolution, but does not use DGA. And I've even seen it with apps which just create an override redirect window which fully covers the desktop (so no mode switching). 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 This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping I can no longer reproduce this with F-14, closing. |
