[LINUX] Setting up xbmc on second monitor renders mouse curser invisible.
#1
Im trying to setup xbmc to run on my desktop computer and displaying its content on my tv. At the same time I would like to be able to use my desktop computer. This however seems impossible.

I have two separate displays setup using one nvidia card and the nvidia driver.

Naturally I would like to have two mouse cursors. One on each display. One on my LCD and one on my TV. Can Xorg handle this without running two separate Xservers with different configs? Can I setup two different xservers that run on the same nvidia card?

If this is impossible I could settle for a solution where I share the mouse cursor between the screens. However this does not work ether. When I start xbmc on my second display (the TV) the mouse cursor disappears on my LCD dispaly. How do I force xbmc to not hide my xcursor?
