Description Kelly Price 2006-08-03 06:46:30 UTC 
The hardware, an HP Omnibook 6000.  The card, an ATI Rage Mobility P/M, with 8
megs of VRAM.  Native resoltion is 1400x1050.

Xorg's ATI driver, thrown into 1400x1050, has visible corruption on the mouse,
and the screen is wrapped around for the first 10 or so lines.  Confirmed with
a copy of Knoppix 5.0.1 (Xorg 7.0) -- using ATI driver corrupts, but Vesa
driver doesn't.

Workaround: use Xorg's Vesa driver.

This was in 6.8.2, and the resolution switching also messes up.  Knoppix' own
attempt looked like to damage the screen (!).

I have compiled up 7.1 in my Gentoo Linux install, and the effects still exist.

Attaching my xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log files.  This was filed in Gentoo's Linux
Bugzilla here:

Has there been any updates on this bug?

Just a guess, can you try using the core cursor ?

e.g. for csh, put the following in your ~/.cshrc and restart X

setenv XCURSOR_CORE 1

you'll understand that you have the core cursor if it is not anti-aliased and not animating ...

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.

Is this still a bug?
