Hello, Moving the mouse pointer into a window of an X client distorts the pointer - it becomes large and blurry -even after it is moved outside of the window. I believe I'm experiencing the same problem reported last year in the e-mail archived at:
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2007-05/msg00075.html I've tried rebasing as suggested elsewhere on this list, which fixed other problems but not the pointer. My cygcheck output is below. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this or how to work around it? Thanks, Daniel Cygwin Configuration Diagnostics Current System Time: Tue Feb 12 15:19:46 2008 Windows Longhorn/Vista (not yet supported!)
