| mntmn | i wrote a little linux kernel patch that implements a hardware cursor, but it’s very limited (a little 4x4 pink square). but i enjoy it more than the flickering of the xorg software cursor. | 23:03 |
| erlehmann | mntmn, what is needed to make the cursor nicer? | 23:06 |
| erlehmann | i can give you a bitmap, if it is that | 23:06 |
| erlehmann | (unifont style, 16×16) | 23:06 |
| mntmn | the hw cursor doesn't support bitmaps | 23:07 |
| mntmn | it's only a one-color rectangle | 23:07 |
| mntmn | i guess that's why it wasn't implemented in the first place | 23:08 |

| erlehmann | mntmn, oh hmmm but why pink | 23:09 |
| mntmn | probably should be redone with the "partial overlay" later | 23:09 |
| mntmn | erlehmann, because it's a rarely used background color. it can be changed easily though | 23:09 |
| mntmn | 0xff00ff | 23:10 |
| erlehmann | mntmn, can you make it reverse or something? | 23:10 |
| erlehmann | like always reversing the buffer color? | 23:10 |
| mntmn | the documentation says yes but the reality says no | 23:10 |
| mntmn | like, the XOR mode doesn't do anything | 23:10 |
| erlehmann | ._. | 23:12 |
| erlehmann | mntmn, are you going to upstream the kernel patch? | 23:13 |
| mntmn | no | 23:14 |
| mntmn | because it can't display a bitmap, i don't think it will be accepted | 23:15 |
| erlehmann | i would at least send it to the ML, so it is publicly archived | 23:15 |
| erlehmann | maybe someone else finds out something, or at least does not have to research it again | 23:16 |
| mntmn | yeah | 23:16 |

| mntmn | swivel, no, it's the hardware that is limited in that regard. and people are moving to wayland which doesn't have these problems anyway | 23:25 |
| swivel | mntmn: hm, does that imply that glamour would also fix it in an X context? | 23:27 |
| mntmn | glamor does work | 23:27 |
| mntmn | but doesn't fix this | 23:27 |
| swivel | i've read complaints about wayland's pointer being laggy and unresponsive under system load, unlike Xorg which draws the pointer in a SIGIO handler | 23:29 |
| * erlehmann_ -> erlehmann | 23:29 | |
| mntmn | swivel, i don't know about that | 23:30 |
| swivel | well it's orthogonal to what you're dealing with, but kind of overlaps in that wayland compositors probably don't have the issue because they use accelerated rendering APIs from userspace like opengl - and that's the reason they also can't do rendering from signal handlers because those libs aren't async-signal safe | 23:38 |
