Ubuntu :: Corrupt Mouse Pointer After Editing Xorg.conf?

Jun 13, 2011

I'm testing a new PC and for business reasons it has to be able to run with Ubuntu 8.04 .The first problem I had was with the Intel GMA 4500 graphics driver. I have managed to resolve that and can now get resolutions > 800x600. However since then the mouse pointer is intermittently corrupt. I've attached an image showing the corrupt pointer which is about the size of a thumbnail.The driver I have installed is xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.4.0~melchiorre-5_i386.deb .I've also attached a copy of my xorg.conf file.While I've been writing this post I've noticed that if I take a screenshot or if I connect to the PC using VNC the entire screen is corrupt.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 10.04 - VLC DVD Playback Not Respond To Mouse Pointer

Dec 9, 2010

Ubuntu 10.04 installed recently. Problem when watching a DVD with VLC. It plays OK, but won't respond to the mouse pointer. I can raise the volume by putting the pointer over the screen and using the scroll, but that is the only thing that responds. I have to get out of the program by doing a force quit. It worked fine in 9.10. I don't know if this is a VLC or Ubuntu problem.

Debian :: Mouse Pointer Suddenly Act Very Strange?

Feb 26, 2010

After a reboot the mouse pointer suddenly started to act very strange...For example horizontal movements move the pointer verically and moving it to the left also scolls down... left click and right click still works, but not the scroll wheel.I have not done any changes related to X (X11R7).The mouse is a wireless usb logitech mouse, with this "nano reciever"-thing. It has worked without any configuration before.I have not tested any other mouse as this is my only one. I will try to get another mouse for testing

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Menus Failed To Activate When Selected With Mouse Pointer?

Feb 17, 2010

Originally I had some strange issues with my desktop.

- Menus failed to activate when selected with Mouse Pointer

- X or - in the upper right corner of any window or program was not selective.
Things just weren't working right.

To fix this I removed the NVIDIA material from Synaptic.

Completely removed the following packages:

dmraid
jockey-common
jockey-gtk
nvidia-173-modaliases

[Code].....

Right now, if you were to open Synaptic and select "Not Installed" and search NVIDIA nothing is installed!

Once removed! and I'm using the safe mode generic drivers I have no desktop issues. My mouse, menus and desktop work just fine.

Now I can install the NVIDI 185ver but my issues with the desktop and menus comes back. However there seems to be some driver updates 190v and 195v, but I can't get them to install.

Right now I don't care what Driver I use just as long as there are no desktop issues.

Oh my Video card is a Geforce GT8900 256mb

Debian Hardware :: 6.0RC1 Mouse Pointer Doesn't Move?

Jan 22, 2011

I Installed Debian 6.0 RC1 in virtualbox on my PC and the installation went fine but when I boot into Debian, the mouse pointer doesn't move although the left and right mouse buttons seem to work.

I'm running on an ASRock 890GX Extreme 3 Mobo with virtualbox running in Windows 7. Virtualbox has no problems with the mouse with other distros I've tried. Is it to do with the proprietary-free kernel being used? If so how do I install the regular kernel?

I'm using a USB Wireless Mouse (Debian 5.07 works fine in Virtualbox), cannot try a PS/2 type mouse (or USB to PS/2 adaptor) as Mobo doesn't have a PS/2 Mouse socket, only one for keyboard

Ubuntu :: Mouse Pointer Points With The Bottom Of The Mouse And Not The Upper Tip Of The Point

Oct 5, 2010

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my HP Pavilion a320n computer with a ps2 mouse and the mouse pointer points with the bottom of the mouse and not the upper tip of the point. It does the same thing with Ubuntu 10.04.1. In Windows 7 and XP the mouse is normal. I don't know how I could adjust it or is this just a bug in the OS?

Fedora :: How To Make Mouse Pointer Less Sensitive To Mouse Movements

Jul 9, 2010

I'm running FC12 and GNOME.If I move the physical mouse about one inch, the mouse pointer moves across the entire screen.That's way too fast and way to sensitive.I prefer the mouse pointer to move far less distance on the screen when the physical mouse is moved.

From System->Preferences->Mouse, I set the various mouse Pointer Speed acceleration and Sensitivity to Slow, Fast, Low, High, and and I couldn't get it any better. At the least sensitive settings. if I move the physical mouse one inch, the mouse pointer moves across the entire screen.How can make the mouse pointer less sensitive to mouse movements?

Debian :: Mouse / Touchpad And Keyboard Not Working After Configuring Xorg

Jul 31, 2011

I was trying to tweak my video card's performance by configuring the xorg.conf file. There were many lines unrelated to the card there; so, to make the file cleaner, I decided to delete all the sections except the one I was dealing with. Obviously I shouldn't have done that. After rebooting the system, all the hardware that provided human interface stopped working. Now I have to find a way to delete that xorg.conf file. The computer is still connecting to the internet, and I have another computer running Debian available. Is there a way to access the broken computer with the other one?

I've seen some desktop screengrabs which have included a transparent graphic (usually in the upper right corner of the screen) that displays current system information such as the hostname, kernel revision, CPU utilization, etc., that is constantly updated.Is that something that is available from Debian? I would like to install it to check it out, if it's available.

Ubuntu :: How To Create Own Mouse Pointer

Mar 27, 2010

i have many mouse pointers in the .ico also .ani and .cur format from my old windows days SEE image attached would also like to make new ones and really want to turn them into a format which works on ubuntu since the choice of pointers is only 6 i found a way to install X11 cursors from gnome-look.org download then save to .icons in the hidden part (control H) of my home folder then go system/preference/appearance/customize/pointers

but even then you have to install a whole lot of files to change one pointer and i see no way of making/installing my own is there a more straightforward way? ubuntu/linux are about freedom and here i am at the moment very restricted

Fedora :: 12 - Mouse Pointer Disappears On Second Screen But Only Sometimes

Jul 15, 2010

I'm running 12, not 11. I don't know why I had 11 in my head. Can this be moved BACK from EOL? If not, I'll start a new thread. Sorry. My wife and I have matching HP EliteBook 8730w "mobile workstations" (laptops that need a donkey to move them). We also have matching LG second screens. Unfortunately, we have matching mouse pointer issues too, as you might expect.

99% of the time we work away without issue. 1% of the time, Fedora suddenly stops showing the mouse pointer in the separate LG screen. The pointer is there, you can use it (if you can guess where the hell it is!) but you can't see it. Only a reboot seems to solve the problem.

It's worth noting xorg.conf is not being used. It's an nVidia card in these laptops and I tried the latest drivers from them - they totally wiped out the display, I mean total FAIL, unusable. Had to boot up in without GNOME, run level 3, to fix it. After much messing around, I think I used the FirstAidKit plugin for xserver to repair things. Since then there is no xorg.conf:

[Code]....

If I restore *any* xorg.conf file it all goes wrong again, so I'm guessing there are either some defaults at play or there's another system currently managing my display. Either way, restoring/editing xorg.conf won't help me with the current set-up.

OpenSUSE :: Mouse Pointer Keeps Auto-clicking / Fix It?

Jan 4, 2011

I just reinstalled openSUSE 11.3 KDE 4.5, and my mouse pointer keeps auto-clicking. It's weird because it is not even happening 100% of the time, just _most_ of the time. I am using a touchpad, and I have disabled tapping.

I had this exact same issue with Kubuntu 10.10 yesterday before I removed it. I am currently on Windows 7 and all seems well, so it is probably is a Linux software issue.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Mouse Pointer Disappears In 11.2

Feb 19, 2010

No matter what kernel I select to boot into, eventually I lose the mouse pointer visibility. If I move the mouse around, stuff does get highlighted, I just can't see the pointer as it moves. CTRL/ALT/BKSP does bring up a logout menu (doesn't kill X, tho), and I can tab thru it...time wasting, although it does come back from a restart with all the windows as before.

I'm running Gnome. Cpu is AMD Athelon 64 3800+ OS is 32 bit. I didn't normally have this problem before. Do I need to return to 11.0 ? Is this a Gnome problem or an X problem. I seem to remember that KDE4 had a utility that would grab the pointer from the ether and stick it back on the screen

OpenSUSE Hardware :: No Mouse Pointer After Login Until

Nov 28, 2010

I'm using 11.2 > Gnome When I (re)login to the desktop there is no mouse pointer, however the mouse is working. Hover shows emphasis and I can click once hovered. I have to go into Configure Display Settings on the Display icon in the panel and hit Apply. That restores the pointer itself. No changes, just Apply. The login screen has a mouse. Mouse Properties > (all tabs) are all default values. The mouse works perfectly other than that.

Ubuntu :: Mouse Pointer Causes Pixel Error

Jan 28, 2010

I've just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my wife's old notebook, a Sony Vaio PCG-FX705, by wiping the HDD (i.e. no more Windows ). The problem is that there's some weird display error that reminds of a TFT with pixel errors, although that's no the cause. I got a screenshot of it here (made with a digicam), and here is a close-up of it.

One thing I've noticed is that this error starts at the mouse pointer's tip and goes right when the computer is booted. Also, when using Blank Screen as screensaver, the error disappears once the screen went blank until I press a key or move the mouse, at which point the error will re-appear at the mouse pointer's current location. The only way I found so far to temporarily fix this problem is to change display resolution. It doesn't matter which resolution I use, all that matters is that I change it.

Ubuntu :: Mouse Pointer Disappearing In Wine?

May 10, 2010

At links the mouse pointer disappears within Internet Explorer 6.0. I just updated to the latest version of ubuntu which run like a charm. This problem however is annoying.I can press Ctrl to see the pointer but the fact is it should never disappear.

I do have problems with the graphics (Intel 4500) which sometimes at reproducable cases stops responding. (When trying to update graphically and having to answer a question in a child window to the main window). Is this problem a wine setting or something with x11 or compiz or ?
