Okay, my mistake there. When I am referring to default, I mean the normal cursor, usually being an arrow. > The mouse pointer should not be a Windows arrow. I didn't think so since it wasn't like that while using the default cygwin window manager; it was using an arrow. > The mouse pointer will not be the default pointer that you have under > Gnome or KDE on the remote system because you are not running Gnome or > KDE on the remote system... you are running only a single application > with a local (not remote) window manager (a.k.a.

Everything seems to be functioning normally. It does, but what is preventing the cursor from being displayed as an arrow like it could without -multiwindow enabled? Fuctionality-wise it works just fine, but aesthetically it's not ideal for the user to see an 'X' when they normally see an arrow. -- Ricky Boone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Planetfurry.com
