[Lancaster] Fw: Mouse disapears

[Martyn Welch]

Hi Guys (yes still on this list!),

Sounds like a video driver problem, which would depend therefore on whether 
Gavin is using the binary Nvidia driver or the OSS one.

Without more information about the specific chip (i.e. output of "lspci") and 
information about the X config (Basically the Xorg.conf file) I wouldn't know 
where to start. I'd guess that the built in Nvidia chip isn't fully supported 
by the OSS driver and Gavin hasn't added the binary one or something like 
that..
