[mythtv-users] Cursor disappears with MythTV 0.14 and Redhat 9

[John Harvey]

I have just been looking at this and I know why it happens. I have a fix
that restores the cursor when myth exits but I don't understand why the code
that's in there that turns the cursor off is there in the first place so I
will ask some questions on the dev list before submitting a patch.

I have the exact same problem and I am running the latest version of Myth
(from cvs) on Gentoo (using fluxbox as my WM)

Hi,

I'm just upgraded MythTV to the 0.14 version and just started having this
problem on a mythfrontend only system.

Redhat 9
Gnome User Interface
MythTV 0.14

I log in and I have a cursor.  I bring up MythTV in a window that takes up
1/4 of the screen.  The cursor disappears if it is over the background
image, over the MythTV window, on the hidden lower panel that pops up, or
the top of any window frame ( the bar with the lower, maximize, and exit
buttons on the top right of the frame).  If the cursor is over the main part
of the window, or on the command line ( File, Edit, View, Go, etc ) it
appears as normal.

This did not behave this was in MythTV 0.13.  Even after I close the MythTV
window,  I still see this problem.  I have to restart the Xserver to bring
it back.  When I execute mythfrontend,  it breaks again.

Thanks,

Mike
