    Hi,

    I've got a problem with my O2 running 6.5.22m.
    When I simply logout it sometimes happens that the mouse
    cursor freezes. I get the usual login window, I can type
    my username and password and the normal desktop starts,
    but the mouse cursor is fixed in the middle of the screen.
    Not even /usr/gfx/stopgfx && /usr/gfx/startgfx will make
    the mouse become alive again. I have to reboot.
    All this only happens sometimes when I logout, not every
    time. You can imagine that running IRIX without a working
    mouse is not much fun.

    TIA
    Dennis

easily enough and it survives bread- and book-replacement fine.
