cursor turns into "no parking" sign
Submitted by keepsea on Tuesday, 28 April, 2009 - 18:26
Hi,

sometimes when I am using jEdit, cursor turns into something that looks like black "no parking" sign and I cannot do anything, I cannot click anything and I have to restart X server. Is it a bug or a feature that I accidently turned on? How do I turn it off? If I turned it on I have no idea how I did that - I just noticed it usually happens when I am selecting text. Do you have any advice?

Yhank you.

Do you have any eye-candy installed?
can you alt-tab to another application?
has this always been this way, or happened after a recent update?
