Hi, has anyone else seen this? Since installing F17 (probably the
first clean fedora install I've done since single digits), I get a
flickering mouse pointer when the system is busy. This might be
related to the fact the mouse pointer hides instantly (no pause) when
stopped over certain window areas (list items seem most common).
Asking partly because I'm not sure what component to report this as a
bug in.
One cause of that can be mishandling of memory bandwidth and FIFO
settings in the graphics card. My first guess therefore would be to file
it against whichever X server you are using and include the X trace, an
dmesg including a boot with drm.debug=7, an lspci and an lspci -vvxxx (as
root)
