If you are using Nvidia video hardware with FC5test3 or later, and the
mouse cursor is invisible, or has any visible mouse pointer corruption,
please add a comment to the following bug report to confirm you are
having the same problem, and attach your X server log file as an
uncompressed file attachment:

2 chips have been identified as experiencing this problem so far, so
once people have updated the report with any other chips that have
the problem, I am going to disable hardware cursors on those chips
by default so that things work out of the box in FC5 for as many
nv users as possible.


I do *not* see any mouse pointer corruption on my system.  x86_64 with
a 6600 GT.  From lspci:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce
6600 GT] (rev a2)

That's not a PCI ID, but a textual description of a video card.
PCI ID is 2 32bit hex numbers of the form VENDOR:DEVICE

lspci -vn

It's the numerical value that matters from a programmatical
standpoint.  If it turns out 2 people have the same device
ID, but one has no cursor, and the other works fine, that would
be useful information to add to the X.Org bug reprot for the
driver maintainer though.
