*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 464853 ***

Comment 2 Adam Goode 2008-10-13 00:25:57 UTC
This is not a duplicate of 464853, that bug refers to the contents of windows, and was fixed recently. This is a new bug that cropped up after the redraw bug was fixed. It has nothing to do with the contents of windows, it is more like the other bug where the mouse cursor would disappear at the top of the screen.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 03:47:18 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Please also add your dmesg output with drm.debug=1 in the kernel command line, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log as uncompressed text/plain attachements to this bug.

This appears to be fixed in rawhide.

Thanks for letting us know.

Comment 12 Adam Goode 2009-08-11 00:28:35 UTC
Curiously, the problem isn't 100% fixed. If the cursor is near the right edge of the screen, and the cursor icon changes, the cursor disappears until it moves. Practically speaking, it's ok, but there is still a weird bug there near the edge of the screen.

Isn't it bug 510125? I have still my deep suspicion that there might be some relationship between these two.

Comment 14 Adam Goode 2009-08-11 19:13:06 UTC
No, this has nothing to do with bug 510125. That bug is about when the mouse cursor goes into a region that is not covered by a monitor. This happens because of randr, and has always happened with X, as far as I know.

This bug is when the mouse is near the right hand side of a rotated screen using KMS on radeon.

Also, before the new somewhat fixed behavior, the mouse cursor would be fine up to close to the edge of the monitor, then get more and more corrupted the closer it got to the edge, then finally disappear. You could still click the mouse, you just could not see the cursor.

Comment 15 Matěj Cepl 2009-08-11 22:20:36 UTC
OK, so reopening.

Comment 16 Adam Goode 2009-10-09 12:03:12 UTC
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-0.10.20091006git457646d73.fc12.x86_64 seems to have fixed this, so far.

Comment 17 Jérôme Glisse 2009-10-20 10:32:00 UTC
I am closing this one reopen if you experience the issue again.
