It's a known bug in Wine, due to animated cursor. It appears when youI'm running Linux Mint 6 "Felicia" and Wine 1.1.18, and I'm trying to get World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King working. I was able to install everything and get it running, but after the intro movie, the mouse cursor is completely invisible. It's still there, as I can mouse over buttons and click them, but I have no idea where the cursor actually is. Every so often, however, the cursor will appear for a few seconds before disappearing again. As you can imagine, this makes it very hard to do anything with the game. It was a chore simply getting past the license agreements before I could get to the login screen.
I'm using a fresh install of Wine (WoW is the first application I've installed) on a fully updated copy of my OS. I'm running WoW in OpenGL mode, as it crashes when run in Direct3D. Here is the terminal output:
Code:
$ wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe" -opengl

I'm a relative noob when it comes to Linux, so I don't even know where to begin to figure out what's wrong. Any help would be great.
move around or there is an option in WoW concerning the cursor that
makes it work (can't remember the option). Easy to find and works
great when you change the option.
