Oh, I see what you're saying... on *SATO*. Agreed. On _sato_ setting HAVE_TOUCHSCREEN set to 1 hides the cursor: meta/recipes-sato/machbox-session-sato/session But what about on plain ol' core-image-x11? Although I wasn't aware of formfactor before, using it now it still doesn't solve the issue for me. The existing mechanism tweaks the pointer at the window manager level, my proposed patch tweaks the pointer at the X server level which (I'm arguing) is a better place to adjust it. This way it's independent of everything (except which display server you're using). -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
