Re: [fuse-emulator-devel] Fuse emulator query

Hi Steven,
The SDL code is set to disable the cursor when it is running in fullscreen mode when started in a UI, but I'm not 100% sure that we have things right when SDL is running outside a WM.

You could try further modifying ui/sdl/sdlui.c and ui/sdl/sdldisplay.c to remove any calls to SDL_ShowCursor( SDL_ENABLE ) and see what happens (not in a WM as it is likely to leave your cursor hidden even on exit).
