Description
After installation of BePDF via HaikuDepot and starting, the Mouse-Cursor change to a black, opened hand in a white square. Same after GobeProductive unpacking and starting. Not sure if it's a Haiku or an PC problem, cause it's an selfmade one with old hardware parts. I'm using latest nightly hrev46779. Could that repoduced by another one?

IIRC BePDF comes with its own mouse cursors, so this *might* be a BePDF bug. I'll have to look at how BePDF manages it's cursors, though.
Looking at the screenshots, those *are* BePDF's cursors, although I have no idea why they are reversed. This sounds like a graphics driver bug to me.

Could also be a problem with hardware cursor support in whatever graphics driver is in use.

Have tried with R1/alpha4.1, too. No Problems there. Starting hrev46779 in failsave mode with resolution 1024x768 at 16bit. Also no Problems.

Replying to anevilyak:

We've talked a bit on IRC today, and it's the nvidia driver. I have the same issues here, but I have a "nvidia.settings" file in ~/config/settings/kernel/drivers/ where I have a line "hardcursor false" (I attach it for people in search of this file). That fixes it for me, but apparently not for Matt.
Anyway, wouldn't it make sense to have "hardcursor false" as default in the driver, so it's working for people having this issue?

"hardcursor false" in ~/config/settings/kernel/drivers/nvidia.settings

Let me ask one question. Why this not occurs on opening applications like Haiku3d, FontDemo, DeskCalc, People and so on?
comment:9 by , 11 years ago
Since the nvidia driver already worked under BeOS, this is most likely an app_server issue that deserves to be fixed.

Duplicate of #9261.
At screenshot Mouse-Cursor is normal on picture. Also if i move the Cursor above an opened folder the hand will be closed as long moving around inside. Cursor only goes normal after a restart of Haiku.
