Does evas_software_x11_test work for you(i.e. not a bunch of pastel
rectangles, colorful images)? My guess would be a broken png loader in
evas. The default pointer image is a png, and loaded with
ecore_evas_cursor_set. I imagine this function is dependent the image
loaders your evas is compiled with.



OK the problem was indeed the png loader in evas, I have a working libpng on my system, but it is linked against the system libz. The configure script test for libpng does not include the right linker flags, which results in the message
checking whether to enable png image loader... yes
checking for png_access_version_number in -lpng... no
(I failed to pick that up when first compiling evas)
and png support not compiled into evas.
My solution to this problem was to
export LDFLAGS='-L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lpng12 -lz -lm'
before compilation, where the LDFLAGS variable is the output of
libpng-config --ldflags
My knowledge of configure scripts is quite limited, but I think configure should be using this when testing for libpng anyway?
There was another one of the EFLs experiencing the same problem(ecore?) but I forgot to make notes, will have a look at it later and report back. Thanks everybody for the pointers, entrance seems to be running fine now.


Cheers

BTW: Great work you guys are doing, there is absolutly nothing that comes close to E!
