Re: Hardware cursor not on desktop?

If I start gimp - hardware cursor is used for the custom cursors while over an image. Other apps that use custom cursors seem to result in hardware cursor calls . but when the cursor goes over the desktop (or the menus, etc.) HideCursor is called and I can only assume that a software cursor is now in use. Is this expected - or should hardware cursor be used at all times? Unless your hardware supports alpha-blended full color cursors, the only place a hardware cursors are going to be used are places where the current cursors theme doesn't have a cursor to replace the old X bitmap cursor. (Perhaps you've noticed the difference in appearance between the cursors that get sent to the hardware and the other cursors) Regards, Owen ___ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel

tvout in XFree86 drivers
Can anybody tell me what's the status of tvout support in XFree86 drivers? As far as I understand it's only available for several graphic cards and only from their manufacturer close-source drivers. From gatos project I learned there are some legal issues with ATI boards but don't know anything about the others.

Re: Radeon 9800 support for XFree86
ATI beat ya to it ;) Support for the 9800 and a few others as well as a few other fixes were added to CVS last week.

Re: tvout in XFree86 drivers
The SiS driver fully supports TV out. Open source. Thomas Alex Deucher wrote: several drivers support TV out but not all. I believe via, trident, and savage have open source support for most tv out options. Matrox provides binary support for the g400 (although you can get tv out working with the linux frambuffer driver for all recent matrox cards), as does nvidia. for ATI there are several open source utilites out there as well as GATOS, but they all are coded by trial and error since ati hasn't released tv out specs as far as I know. I'm not sure abotu ATI's binary drivers. was there a particular chip you were interested in?

Savage Driver Replacement?
I've recently been made aware of the XFree86 Savage driver that VIA released and is now available on Alan Hourihane's web site. This driver is so much superior to the one I've been maintaining that I should be embarrassed.
