Re: [9fans] Mouse pointer icon stuck in the upper left corner

[Gorka guardiola <paurea@gmail.com>]

I saw this once. The registers which are used to move the cursor around
where not on the same place. I printed them in the X in linux and got
it to work,
but a non-oficial driver around solved the problem better. After some time
it started working with the sources version I think. It all had to do with
the VGA bridge and having two VGA interfaces in the same VGA card. All
the registers for the second VGA interface were offset. The driver was
written for the first interface. I speak all this from memory... Probably
someone else knows better.

HTH.
