[techtalk] disappearing mouse!!

[Martin.Caitlyn at epamail.epa.gov]

Hi, e,

Errr... changing monitor resolution should be no big thing.  I have my
system set up so that I can change between the two I use on the fly, and
nothing errant happens.  Even making changes in XF86Setup or XF86Config
don't break it.  I don't know what happened in your case, but changing
resolution *shouldn't* effect your mouse.  I sure wouldn't write off doing
it again.

Regards,
Cait

I used mouseconfig, XF86Config, and Xconfigurator, but to no avail.

I reinstalled the operating system this morning and all is well.  Note to
self, don't change the monitor resolution.
