I should clarify. By "permanently" I mean even after GP closes, and until the next reboot.

Out of curiosity, what graphics card do you have in that machine?

comment:3 by Kev, 12 years ago

Radeon 9200 128 MB AGP, is that bad? :-)

No, I've just seen similar problems with the cursor in general on the same driver myself since hardware cursor support was enabled.

Summary: Gobe Productive 2.01 Spreadsheet permanently changes mouse cursorMouse cursor disappears temporarily and returns permanently changed

This was originally with Gobe Productive 2.01 Spreadsheet, but now I have it in BePDF also (installed with installoptionalpackage.) As soon as I launch BePDF, my cursor is completely invisible, until I close BePDF, at which time it turns into a white block with a black hand. (With Gobe it turns into various things, two examples I remember are a spreadsheet cell "+ sign" and a resize arrow.) With BePDF, subsequent launches do not cause the cursor to disappear, but it never returns to a normal cursor, either.

Also on hrev45484 gcc4hybrid, BTW.

Radeon's cursor acceleration hooks have been disabled in hrev45508. Leaving ticket open until they're actually fixed properly though.
