Re: [PATCH] modesetting: allow switching from software to hardware cursors.

Can you give an example of when drmSetCursor2 would fail sometimes but not always, enough to switch back and forth actively? I'm not a huge fan of the patch because now errors could cause really bizarre double-cursor, or no-cursor flickering, since there is no guarantee that the swapover happens
