X mouse cursor on S3 Tri3d/2X 86C368

[Brian May <bam@debian.org>]

Hello,

I thought this hardware would be fully supported by XFree86.  However,
the mouse cursor appears as a big square white block. Everything
else works perfectly, just feels a bit weird.

I had to use the sw_cursor option within XF86Config, and now
it is fine.

So, my conclusion is the hardware mouse cursor does not work.  Would
this be a problem with my display card or a problem with XF86_SVGA?

I tried both 8bpp and 16bpp, always the same affect.

Oh, and this display has 8Mb RAM and I am currently running it at 1280x1024
with the sw_cursor option with no problems.
