HW cursor is default so you have to disable it explicitly.
Hello all, I've read the trident(4x) man page and found the SWCursor option. I turned it on and now the mouse pointer is working fine! Kevin, I think this should work for you too. What did you really do? Just insert the line Option "SWCursor" "On" inside the Section "Device" of your XF86Config-4 file. And make sure the file you edit is the same used by the XServer. In my system, the server log is written to the /var/log/XFree86.0.log. Take a look at the initial lines of this file to confirm. Maybe it's reading another file. BTW, maybe it helps to track the problem down. When I use HWCursor, these lines keep appearing in (and inflating the) log file: (II) TRIDENT(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000 (II) TRIDENT(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000 (II) TRIDENT(0): vgaHWGetIOBase: hwp->IOBase is 0x03d0, hwp->PIOOffset is 0x0000 That's it. Thanks to all that helped me! cheers, -- Felipe Massia Pereira <http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~ra000493> CS MSc Student @ IC-UNICAMP _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
