Enhanced Zoom cursor in 0.7.6

Does Compiz-0.7.6 solve the problem with the 'waiting'
cursor being
invisible when using the Enhanced Zoom plugin? I see mention
of
'various bugfixes' but I couldn't find the appropriate bug
to check
it's status. Thanks.

No, this is not fixed in Compiz Fusion 0.7.6.

The bug is caused by XFixes, not something eZoom does (that
is; eZoom
uses XFixes. XFixes bugs up.).

While h
ttp://bugs.opencompositing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409 is
the
eZoom-filed bug, it's closed because, well it's not a Compiz
Fusion
issue...

Though it would be nice with an XFixes fix ....

Thank you Kristian. Does XFixes not have a bugzilla? I
cannot find the
upstream bug either. This must be "Dotan is lost"
day. I did find your
page on dev though:

fusion.org/~kristian/2007/08/25/xfixes-the-problem-and-the-d

Thanks. No relevant bug there. I could file it, but I would
prefer if
someone with more technical knowledge of the root of the
problem would
file it. Who really knows about this stuff?

I can say that for me the problem affects not only Firefox
but also
Thunderbird and Opera.

Go for it. I don't even remember from where I copied it, but
I doubt
that it is copywrited!
