Mouse cursor corrupted on "BAT LOW" warning
If I let my battery get too low, the BIOS brings up a "BAT LOW" warning.
After that happens, my mouse cursor gets changed to be the words "BAT
LOW". There does not seem to be a way to disable this feature of the
BIOS. If I switch to a virtual console and then back to X, the mouse
reverts to being an arrow, but shrunken down, repeated an inch to the
right (so there are two arrows), and has a bunch of garbage below the
two. Sometimes, restarting X restores the cursor, but often it
doesn't.
How do I prevent this from happening? Any leads for what documentation
to look at? (found nothing in the howto's or on tuxmobil)
I'm running a Gateway Solo 9150. Upgrading to the latest BIOS (12.03)
did not solve the problem. The graphics chip is an ATI 3D Rage LT Pro
AGP-133.
TIA
Regards,
Neil
