Package: gedit Version: 3.2.6-1 Severity: important Sometimes the blinking text cursor disappears visually, although it's still technically there (text is still entered at the invisible cursor). I have found a way to bring it back: go to an empty workspace and then go back to the workspace with the document. The cursor never disappears while I'm looking at the document. It's usually that I have been at another workspace, and when I go back to the workspace with the document, the cursor has disappeared.
I use Xmonad. Not sure if it could have something to do with it (it's the window manager that handles workspaces, after all). I have not used Metacity/Mutter/Shell much, so I cannot tell if it happens with those too. But I'll experiment as soon as I get time. Sadly it doesn't happen often enough so that I can just start a Shell-session and try for a few minutes. I would probably have to force myself to work in a Shell-session for a day or two, but that would be so inconvenient. ~ Patrik
