           Summary: mouse cursor disappears
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All

with nouveau driver (checkout from 20070824), mouse cursor disappear after the
first move in different game such as wesnoth, enigma or with dosbox when dosbox
get the control of the mouse.

This problem appears only on fullscreen mode for enigma and wesnoth ; but it
appears also on windowed mode with dosbox.

the problem appears with both exa and xaa.
nothing seems to be print in the logs (but I didn't insert the drm module
with
debug=1)

with nv, everything is fine.

Could you try setting up the SDL environment variable please ?
try setting SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=1 or SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=0

Please try: http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/app/xf86dga.git;a=summary

Run it as root and it should say something like:

Xserver driver doesn't support DirectVideo on screen 0

Please report your findings.

SDL 1.2.12 Release Notes

Fixed detection of X11 DGA mouse support.

Any chance for an upgrade to verify?

I personally have no issues with wesnoth and libsdl-1.2.13.
