X cursor problem on new install

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I just installed arch for the first time (trying it out since I am unhappy
with the state of Kubuntu). I have, I think, followed the installation
instructions carefully. Everything seemed OK until I tried to run X.

The cursor is offset from where it should be. If I move the mouse to the
right, the cursor stops about 2/3 of the way across the screen and won't go
any farther. If I move the mouse to the left, the cursor disappears off the
left hand side of the screen and reappears on the right hand side. It stops
moving to the left a short distance from the right border on the screen.

The display of windows on the screen looks fine; it's just the cursor that
seems to be wrong.

1. I have tried two mice; both behave the same way.
2. I used wgetpaste as instructed at
  wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide#Graphical_User_Interface:
    ~/.xinitrc does not exist
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist
    /var/log/Xorg.0.log is at paste.pocoo.org/show/428974
    /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old is at paste.pocoo.org/show/428976

Obviously, I need to get this resolved before proceeding any further with
installing a desktop environment.
