Hi Vince, Im not sure this is a bug, but rather hardware limitation.
You have an ATI Rage 128 which probably just cant do harware cursors
so turning it off renders the cursor in software rather than asking
the garaphics card to do it.

If Im wrong on this then can someone let me know so a bug report can be filed...
Also - if it is a hardware limitation, shouldnt this be accounted for
when installing and hardware cursor dissabled automoatically for this
card?

Tom
