>Description:
The XFree86 DGA extension more or less works on the Shark. However,
it appears that the CyberPro driver in the X server forgets to turn
off the hardware cursor, and I end up with a big square on the screen
where the mouse pointer used to be.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run a program using the DGA extension (e.g. xmame or xmess compiled
with DISPLAY_METHOD set to `xf86_dga'). ObTim: Be disappointed that
it *almost*, but not quite, DTRT.
>Fix:
Not investigated.
