           Summary: Blinking mouse cursor in center of screen in Fallout:
                    New Vegas
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.19
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: david at mytsoftware.com


After upgrading from 1.3.18 to 1.3.19, I now get a standard mouse pointer stuck
in the exact center of the screen in Fallout: New Vegas. While playing, the
pointer appears and disappears at a regular interval of about 1 second. At the
main menu, it often behaves a little different, appearing when I stop moving
the mouse, and disappearing while I'm moving it.

Fallout 3 and Oblivion do not share this problem. 

The working 1.3.18 tested was from the ViVnet PPA for Lucid (the official PPA
hasn't been updated for Lucid since 1.3.17). The 1.3.19 where I experience the
problem was pulled from git (git log shows last commit as being "Release
1.3.19") and built with default options apart from changing the install prefix
(./configure --prefix=/opt/winegit, make -j8, make install) and applying the
unsupported wine-pulse patch (which was also present in the working 1.3.18),
since there are no PPA builds up yet for 1.3.19 on Lucid.

Steam forced an New Vegas update on me the same day as I updated Wine, but I
retested in 1.3.18 to rule out that update, and the problem still wasn't
present in 1.3.18.

I have not compiled my own 1.3.18 to rule out the problem being my own build,
but I haven't experienced any other problems with it. It built fine, but
running "apt-get build-dep wine1.3" beforehand with the official wine ppa
repository added didn't work, saying "Unable to find a source package for
wine1.3". "apt-get build-dep wine" (without the 1.3) did work though.
