[XFree86] mouse cursor is a big rectangle on sis video card

2003-01-29 Thread Marius Andreiana
Hi

On sis 5591/5592 agp video card, mouse cursor is displayed as a big
(30x30 pixels ) rectagle filled with random stuff. There's also a dotted
line (sometimes two) almost in the middle of the screen. For very short
period of times the cursor is displayed properly.
I'm using xfree86 4.2.99 included in second red hat beta release.

Please let me know if other information is needed or how could I help
fixing this.

Thank you!

Could you try the following please, and let me know if it works.

Open /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Go to the Display section.
Add:
  Option SWCursor

in that section.

Thanks

I will. Should I also try starting X with -nosilk?

The problem is the owner of the system is a complete newbie and lives
quite far from me, it will take several days for me to try this.
In the meantime, if there's anything I should try or gather more info
when I go there, please let me know.

thank you!
