My point was that if you want to avoid the vintage X appearance, you'd likely start the X server with a black root window instead of the ugly stipple, and we could hook the 'disable the cursor' mode to the same option. Does that seem like a reasonable combination? I just can't imagine any credible desktop environment wanting either the stipple or the X cursor. > > The protocol, by the way, does _not_ mandate the stipple.

Yes, I'm cool with the black root background; nicer looking, conforming to the spec and everything. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
