Description John Fleck 2002-03-13 14:18:13 UTC 
Click in command line applet's text entry area.

No cursor appears. I can type, but I don't get the normally expected
feedback informing me of that fact.

This is a cvs build from 3/12/02.
Comment 1 Kevin Vandersloot 2002-03-14 02:36:18 UTC 
Are you using Metacity?
Comment 2 John Fleck 2002-03-14 02:57:18 UTC 
Yes, but a switch to Sawfish doesn't help.

Comment 5 Kevin Vandersloot 2002-03-15 02:10:31 UTC 
John, is this with Sawfish for gnome2? I've filed a metacity bug for this.
Comment 6 John Fleck 2002-03-15 02:45:19 UTC 
A switch to sawfish and changing the background/foreground colors so
they're not the same *did* help.
Comment 7 John Fleck 2002-03-24 16:12:25 UTC 
I've got GNOME2 sawfish running now, and still no cursor.

Comment 9 Yogeesh 2002-05-14 05:54:38 UTC 
I checked with latest(v 1.101.0) panel, I am not finding this problem.
I do get black chars on white background with a line(|) type cursor.
Comment 10 Wayne Schuller 2002-05-19 07:43:59 UTC 
I do not have this problem with may 15th 2002 CVS of everything.
Comment 11 Glynn Foster 2002-05-23 13:17:06 UTC 
Marking as fixed based on the above two comments.
Comment 12 Bharat Tewari 2002-05-23 13:32:03 UTC 
this bug's not resolved but it is a problem of metacity window 
manager which has bug id 82213 so we can mark this as duplicate of 
that but the bug still exists and its easily reproducible.
Comment 13 John Fleck 2002-05-23 14:21:51 UTC 
I'm using metacity and the works correctly for me now.
Comment 14 Shane O'Connor 2002-05-30 13:44:32 UTC
