On both Debian/Lenny and Ubuntu/Intrepid, it apparently offsets the perceived location of the mouse pointer (glyph location versus pointer physical location) by one vertical GNOME menu row and it makes the X server crash at random after just a few minutes. However, the garbage around the pointer is indeed gone in both cases. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi _______________________________________________ Xorg-driver-geode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-geode
