[Pkg-e-devel] Bug#812375: e17: mouse cursor flashing

[Michal Suchanek]

Package: e17
Version: 0.17.6-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

the default mouse cursor in e17 is ridiculously small.

Looking in mouse settings the preset reads 32 pixels.

Setting the cursor to anything larger than 64 pixels causes the cursor
to flash. It seems worse in some applications than others. eg. in the
mouse settings the flashing tends to be minor but in fullscreen terminal
window the cursor can become nearly invisible for seconds.

Maybe if there is some hardware limitation on sensible cursor size the
control panel should try harder to detect it.

Thanks

Michal
