Anybody succeded to make 3.1.2F (SVGA) running on a 760C ? I installed
everything, configured it with XF86Setup and when i started it up it
looked fine, but only at first sights. When the mouse is moved there
is a square around the cursor which gets strangely updated: it's a
copy of the screen a couple of centimeters towards the upper right
corner. the screen also gets corrupted when you reach the bottom of a
xterm and the xterm tries to scroll ...

any ideas/suggestions/help ?

thanks a lot
