Hi,
I have installed a new gentoo machine with xorg and KDE.
Everything works fine, but the mouse has a low responsiveness. The speed of
the rest of the componets is ok, but the mouse moves with a certaing
laziness, meaning that it arrives to its destination a few decs of a second
after it is supposed to arrive and the image of the icon disappears for while
it is moving.
Hmm, for most graphics adapters the mouse cursor is drawn by the
hardware. The fact that it disappears during movement suggests that the
cursor is being drawn in software for some reason.
Check the graphics device section in xorg.conf, and make sure you do not
have SWCursor enabled. You can also check /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and see
what that says about your cursor. For example, I have:
(==) RADEON(0): Silken mouse enabled
(II) RADEON(0): Using hardware cursor (scanline 1052)
Finally, it might be useful to read the man page for the X.org graphics
driver you are using.
HTH,
