I'm not shure if this is a feature or a bug...
If it is a feature, I think that it is a very very very bad feature.
I have better use to my cpu than to blink a small line.
Even if the cursor only blinks when the window has the focus (the quick
fix), even so it is a bad idea, as it ruins unix multitasking features.
When I'm writing, I can have cpu intensive applications (or other users)
running. I think that X11 doesn't have a blink feature for this reason
(but I might be wrong).
So, if it is a feature, it could be disabled at configure time, or at
lyxrc.
If it is a bug, a fix is imperative ( but who I'm I to say this and not
provide a patch? :()
Thanks,
Joao
