I see this as well, since at least the xserver-svga 3.3.3.1-6 version (4 June), on my Diamond Viper 550 AGP card... it's truly, truly annoying; it may sound apocolyptic but I haven't been able to do any local work on this system--Emacs is pretty much unusable if you can't see the cursor! I've tried updating to each new server version, including the latest 3.3.3.1-9, but nothing helps. There were no followups to this note; does anyone have a solution? Alternatively, is there any way, using apt or dpkg, to downgrade to an earlier version of the .deb that worked? I can't go back to the stable dist because I must have 3.3.3.1 to support this system :-/. I couldn't find the earlier binaries stored on the ftp sites anywhere; is there an historical archive site or s'thing? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
