Hi list,


When I connect to a remote desktop (running vnc4server) using krdc, I got a wrong mouse cursor like this:


it will not let me click anything inside the main window, just stretch or shrink the width of the window.

I did some cross test, and found that:

 - In a fresh install of kubuntu 12.10 (running KDE 4.9.5), this problem did not occur.
 - When I upgrade kubuntu 12.10 to KDE 4.10.3, this problem occurred.
 - In a fresh install of kubuntu 13.04 (running KDE 4.10.2), this problem occurred.

I found the following discussion.  Someone had the same problem, but no answer.


Since a fresh 12.10 with KDE 4.9.5 worked but KDE 4.10.3 didn't, I wonder if this would be a KDE problem.  However, it only happened in a remote desktop (vnc) session.  In the :0 display it worked well.


The vnc startup script is simple.  It just launched /etc/X11/Xsession.


Any help would be very appreciated.


Thanks,
Franklin



Furthermore, I tried to launch systemsettings and use keyboard to control.  When I went to "Workspace Appearance" -> "Cursor Theme", it *always* crashed.

It looked more and more like a KDE mouse control problem...

Some more test.
 - If I run LXDE instead of KDE in a vnc session, this problem did not occurred.
 - If I run only kdeinit4 but not run startkde (default session is KDE, but I just started X window and a vnc config dialog.  From the output of ps I saw kdeinit4 was launched) this problem occurred.
 - It did not help if I run vncserver :0 .  So it's not a problem running in :1, :2, ... etc.

Using LXDE and KDE 4.9.5 without problem makes me believe that it is a KDE 4.10 problem.
