[Bug 22119] New: X11 mouse pointer shows over fullscreen window
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22119 Summary: X11 mouse pointer shows over fullscreen window Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P1 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: fred(a)alternation.fr I'm opening this as a new bug, even if I know it's a duplicate of at least 3 other ones! But I do it on purpose, because I think we got a real problem here, a kind of very underestimated one and so it can joins all reports about it in one place! Let me explain what is it about: as the title said it, the X11 mouse pointer shows over fullscreen window in a bunch of applications, most of them being games (but not only)! First I met this bug with the game "The Heat of War" I've played through with Wine 1.1.36 and submitted in the appdb here: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=19287 I've found that there's 3 bugs already talking about, but every time about an other application: - Diablo II: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20362 - Geiss: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21524 - Quake Live: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17746 (that one being closed invalid, where it doesn't really seems to be the case) Then, I've found by the Ubuntu forums that the problem is even bigger: - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=988573 - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=925046 and some workarounds: - Or quickly moving the cursor as the game is launched (tricky to achieve & look stupid =;) - Or using a WM (Fluxbox for exemple) other than Gnome, as it looked related to in this case. (Fedora 12 x86_64 + Gnome) It's important to say that problem NEVER EVER shows in windowed mode, but ONLY in fullscreen! But now that I wanted to submit Call of Duty 2 with a Platinum note on appdb, because it was working so great (and I've finished it) on a OpenSuse 11.2 x86_64 (+ KDE4) box, I've noticed that the used Wine version (proposed by the official repos) was an old 1.1.28! So I updated to 1.1.41 and guess what? Every single symptom being before described are now here: "ghost mouse" on fullscreen, not in windowed mode, going away with quickly moving the cursor as the game is launched! Using the alternate WM being provided with OpenSuse (IceWM) doesn't help at all this time, the problem is also there... Now, it even crashes some times my X session, bringing me back to KDM login screen, what never happened before! The only message I've found about it being: Mar 22 13:05:06 mir kdm[1166]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly But that might be 2 different problems, so it doesn't have perhaps to be mixed with the main problem here... It's important to say that I've totally disabled Desktop Effects / Compiz when playing both games, so it has nothing to do with it. The graphic card with the first game was an integrated chipset Intel GM45, the one for the second game a Nvidia Geforce 7600 GT, so it's not hardware / driver related... Gnome and KDE are affected, but not Fluxbox on Fedora 12. I've just found the way right now to install it on OpenSuse 11.2 (as it is not in the official repos) so I will give it a try and edit this bug later (as I've to log out). I'm ready to still keep a while Call of Duty 2 (even if I wanted to delete it) to provide more feedback, tests or whatever needed to help getting rid of this bug, because I don't see as trivial or not important: it is REALLY more then just an annoyance, it has to be eradicated and it looks like a big regression... So I hope it helps... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22119 --- Comment #1 from Fred <fred(a)alternation.fr> 2010-03-22 09:30:04 --- So here again, with Fluxbox, NO ghost mouse! There's something in common with Gnome & KDE bringing that trouble with Wine > 1.1.28, and that is not affecting Fluxbox in anyway. But finding what is beyond my abilities without the help from somebody =;) And the random X crashes by game start are also still there, but then choosing "safe mode" and "automatic configuration" makes the game playable again... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Wine version?
OK, the version numbers are drowned deep in my report, that's true =;) Bug present in Wine version 1.1.36 with "The Heat of War" (I don't have it installed anymore, can't check with 1.1.41). Bug also present in Wine version 1.1.41 with "Call of Duty 2", but I've played that game through WITHOUT the "ghost mouse" with Wine version 1.1.28, that means that the bug appears in a version of Wine between the 1.1.28 and 1.1.36 and is still there in 1.1.41.
X crashes point to the problem with X itself or display drivers.
mmh, you confirm then the feeling I've had that it might not be related, I will try to analyse deeper my logs...
Sorry, I haven't seen that page before, so Blocker is far too much, that's also true =;) Tell me if you need anything else, but I'll be back in 2 hours... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I've seen it first in Wine: Version 1.1.36 (with the game "The Heat of War"). It doesn't affects Wine: Version 1.1.28 (with the game "Call of Duty 2") So I forgot to specified the version first, but now 1.1.36 is not accurate, as it is still present in 1.1.41, so I'm changing it now to version 1.1.41. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Then don't!
I just wanted to draw some attention on this bug and apparently I achieve it =;)
Closing. No need a 4th duplicate.
You're right, I'm going then to edit the 2 still opened, but the 3rd needs to be reopened I think, even if you closed it as invalid, as this problem never shows on Windows... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
