Hello: I had to install debian wheezy which comes with KDE 4.8.4. This KDE4 has a _serious_ bug which almost make it unusable. One of them is that the mouse pointer becomes invisible (literally disappears) when moved over specific areas, eg over window buttons. This is annoying but one can live with it. But when I move the pointer over an xsane preview area the mouse pointer is not visible anywhere in the preview window. This makes impossible to select the area to be scanned. An this is what I find unacceptable. Another pointer related bug is that the pointer style can not be set to classic permanently. After logout/login it is reverted to the default style. And now the point: I know that KDE 4.8 is a relatively old KDE version. But according to https://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.8_Release_Schedule it was released in June 2012. KDE 4.1 was released in July 2008, 4 years earlier. I could not find release info on KDE 4.0. Is this normal that after 4 years of intensive development such bugs still exist? KDE3 whole life cycle maybe was less than 4 years. But I cannot recall if it had such a serious bug. On a desktop the mouse pointer is not visible over certain areas.??? How could this be released at all? Istvan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
