Re: Cursor problems still in test9

Hi!

quoted

[And they get worse in fbcon-test patches I tried].

Try this on 2.4 (with vesafb).

echo -e "\33[10;5000]\33[11;50]\33[?18;0;136c\33[?102m"

...then try it on 2.6, type foo in bash then delete it using
backspace; ghost cursors stay there. Run emacs and quit it (it sets
cursor to very visible). Boom, special cursor settings are gone.

I experimented with the above. I tried it out on vgacon, fbcon 2.4.X and 
fbcon 2.6.X. All give different results. What are suppose to see? 

Well, we certainly do not want to see artifacts leaved behind cursor,
which is what 2.6 currently does. (Type something in bash, backspace
over it).

Making it behave like it does now with 2.6, but with cursor properly
deleted after after backspace, it would be okay.

[It should behave the same way on 2.4 vgacon and fbcon... with
possible difference that "bright background" might cause characters to
blink on vgacon. That depends on vga card setting and is not really
important.]

And now, use gpm on text console to select some text. Hold down left
button, move mouse a bit. Sometimes cursor gets corrupted and stays
there.

Will try.

Were you able to reproduce it?
