Well, if you don't have a HW cursor, just use SW. It sounds like you're trying to hide the cursor as part of a custom embedded setup. Why not leverage HideCursor/ShowCursor from Xfixes? You can just hide the cursor for the root window and it shouldn't show up anywhere else. ~ C. _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
