My =>video hardware supports hardware acceleration of a standard white arrow, =>to help prevent flickering when moving the mouse over say a video or an =>animated gif or webpage scrolling or other objects on the screen being =>updated. I'd like it to use that, but since I've gone to FC1 it is black =>and flickers all over the place. => =>I went into prefs for root and all other users and changed the setting =>for Use White Cursor to enabled, rebooted and it's still the same black =>cursor. If I could get the black arrow to at least not flicker I'd be =>happy with that, but I think the only way to do that on my hardware is =>to have it the standard white one. Easy peasy.
