Well, sure, if you run it in an xterm then you're using the xterm cursor handling, not Emacs'; xterm (rxvt, etc.) cursors do work. I'd like to use the new patches, but for the stuff I do day-to-day having a working version of Emacs in X is much more important. I used text-based Emacs for many years before Emacs 19 came out, but now my Emacs environment is so reliant on X for special key and mouse bindings, etc. that it's hard to do real, serious work without it :-/. I've fallen back to the XFree86 3.3.3.1 SVGA server and it works; I'll keep trying the new deb packages as they're released and hope for a fix... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
