This sounds like a problem that I have seen with via and openchrome drivers, and that the workaround was to set the following in xorg.conf [Device] section: Option "SWcursor" "true" To do this via lts.conf would be something like: X_OPTION_01 = "\"SWcursor\" \"true\"" My only concern would be that xorg.conf doesn't seem to be used these days, and I can't remember how to resurrect it for specific clients CONFIGURE_X = True/False? Anyone? As for installing from SVN, if you have to, I would have thought it best to create a package on a separate machine and copy it across to the chroot and install there. Others would be better placed to advise. -- Chris Roberts +------------------+--------------------------+ | Distribution | Debian Lenny | | LTSP Version | 5.1.90-1 | | LDM Version | 2.0.48-1 | | Windows Manager | KDE 3.5.10 | | Kernel | 2.6.26-bpo.1-686 | +------------------+--------------------------+ | Distribution | Debian Lenny | | LTSP Version | 5.1.85-1 | | LDM Version | 2.0.45-1 | | Windows Manager | KDE 3.5.10 | | Kernel | 2.6.26-2-686 | +------------------+--------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
