All, I am finally stumped enough by something to post in the forum! Basically
whilst running a game through steam (either from steam itself or running the exe
directly) I get 2 cursors. Now one of them is the one I would expect and works
properly, however the second one is kinda anchored to the middle of the screen
and looks like the gnome cursor.
If you move your mouse, the middle cursor tries to move in same direction but
snaps back to the middle. Now some tested games;
CS:S - During menu the middle cursor isn't there, but as soon as you enter
game it's under the crosshair
Splinter Cell (original) - original problem
Elder Scrolls oblivion - same
It only appears to affect my steam prefixes, I've tried a steam install with
no overrides and same problem, yet another game in a different prefix (like
bridge commander) hasn't got the same problem. In fact im sure its steam
related. It happens in xfce4 as well so I'm reluctant to blame gnome.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm truely out of ideas :S (yes I have tried all the
window settings in winecfg, no difference!)
Oh and hello all, I'm the super for a few old games so thought I'd say
hi as well!
