Subject: Bug#16316: Blinking Cursors and Tool Tips
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-bugs-dist&m=97561010516401

Package: unknown
Version: KDE-base-2.0-7
Severity: normal
Installed from: Mandrake RPM's

I read throuhg the bug reports already generated, but read
that most were pre-KDE FINAL release bugs. This is a bug that is still present in the FINAL release. 

I have found a partial solution to it, so it may help you to understand the 'link' better.

If you use Netscape and Gimp and a few other 'non-KDE' apps you have the tool tips and cursor blinking away, it really does get very anoying. I discovered that the reason is, is that I prefer for my panel to 'auto hide' I had it set at a 1 second rate, so I tried setting it at a 4 second rate, and the blinking slowed down, then I turned it off and NO BLINKING.

It's quite obvious that these two are linked, and this is one irratating bug that needs to be squashed.

Thank you for hearing me.
