Re: A very strange X problem
I forgot to mention that in my post that I can move the mouse around just like
you say. I have also thougth of it being a hardware-problem. Just out of
curiosity, what gfx-card do you have? I have a 3dfx voodoo3 2000 agp, maybe
there is some problem with the tdfx-driver.

It just locks my screen with everything frozen except the mouse, which moves around fine. Maybe this isn't a hardware problem like I initially thought :)
