Description:   Opened: 2008-04-07 00:10 0000 
On powerpc the hardware cursor gets screwed up. It looks as a bigendian bug.

The cursor is 'mirrored horizontally' and shifted to the left. Easy fix is
selecting swcursor.

Reproducible: Always

Actually, this patch is already applied in the x11-driver/xf86-video-ati-6.8.0
ebuild. But to fix this bug, xorg-server needs to be patched, too (see
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/xserver.git;a=commit;h=da973e962d09854b571320dee7dd9569060bc39e
). At least, I can tell that x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r5 needs this patch,
as I've just tested it myself. Maybe xorg-server-1.4 was fixed by upstream, I
don't know (the patch was commited on 2008-03-20).

Fix cursor bug in xorg-server on big-endian platforms.

This is the patch that fixes this bug. It should be applied to
x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r5, and maybe other versions as well.

------- Comment #4 From Donnie Berkholz 2008-05-09 07:38:21 0000 ------- 
I've put this patch into a local branch for xorg-server 1.4 and requested that
upstream pull it into their repository.

------- Comment #5 From Alex Cannon 2008-09-26 04:09:51 0000 ------- 
I have this problem too.  Will this patch be added to the portage tree?
[ebuild   R   ] x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.8.0-r1  USE="dri -debug" 0 kB

------- Comment #6 From Rémi Cardona 2009-05-08 12:23:49 0000 ------- 
This patch has been in xorg-server for quite a while and is shipped with the
latest stable version on PPC (1.5.3-r5).

Closing fixed

Thanks
