GPL: filckery mouse!

Hi, I don't know if anyone has run into this problem (since I haven't seen it mentioned here or in the read me) but my mouse cursor seems to flicker. Whenever I click somewhere on the screen a "copy" of the cursor will be left wherever I clicked and it'll sit there flickering. It doesn't really harm anything, but sometimes GPL crashes for no reason and I'm thinking that may be why. If anyone knows anything about this, please fill me in! Thanks, -YUBS

What the hell your not physic!! :) K, my bad... I'm Running: PII 266 128mb ram Diamond Monster II 8mb (yup) Newest V2 reference dirvers I think its the reference drivers. Has 3dFX been notified? -YUBS

I had the EXACT same problem with the new release candidate reference drivers that came out this week. I went back to the old version of the drivers until 3dfx get it fixed. Seeyas on the track. --John (Joao) Silva

Try turning off all enhanced V2 features (trilinear something, etc.). l8er ronny -- Toys'R'Us '99: "So, would you like a hand gun with that action figure, kiddo?" |\ _,,,---,,_ I want to die like my Grandfather, ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ in his sleep. |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Not like the people in his car, '---''(_/--' `-'\_) screaming their heads off!

I get the same problem, and I have a Voodoo 1 (Canopus)...

this started happening to me with voodoo2 dx6 drivers.

% ya, the Readme says something about the triple buffering and those features, and % I've already checked them (to see that they were un-checked :)). The only thing I % have on is Disable V-sync and disable SLI (since I don't have it). I'll try turing % everything off and I'll write back.. You mentioned you were using the new Reference drivers. Are these the Diamond drivers or the 3DFX ones? I didn't experience this with the 3DFX drivers and my CL Voodoo2, but did with the DirectX 6.0 beta drivers. The other thing you may want to try is turn off any fancy features in your mouse driver (i.e., animated cursors, etc.). -- **************************** Michael E.
