I had already tried "emacs -q" to not load my local .emacs file. But I had linked in libraries for jpeg/png/tif/gif etc, so my execuatable wasn't a bare bones case. So I tried NOT including those libs. The cursor issue was still there, BUT I saw that configure still found XPM, UNGIF and PNG So I then configure as follows: ./configure --without-xpm --without-ungif --without-png It still says it used ungif(?). Here is a portion of the output from configure: Configured for `hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00'. Where should the build process find the source code? /home/rdstt1/t901353/src/emacs-21.2 What operating system and machine description files should Emacs use? `s/hpux11.h' and `m/hp800.h' What compiler should emacs be built with? gcc -g -O2 Should Emacs use the GNU version of malloc? yes Should Emacs use a relocating allocator for buffers? yes Should Emacs use mmap(2) for buffer allocation? no What window system should Emacs use? x11 What toolkit should Emacs use? none Where do we find X Windows header files? Standard dirs Where do we find X Windows libraries? Standard dirs Does Emacs use -lXaw3d? no Does Emacs use -lXpm? no Does Emacs use -ljpeg? no Does Emacs use -ltiff? no Does Emacs use -lungif? yes Does Emacs use -lpng? no Does Emacs use X toolkit scroll bars? no And now the cursor blinks properly and I can't get it to fail. I will try adding one thing at a time. ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2002 14:39:02 -0500 (EST) From: Tom Wurgler To: eliz@is.elta.co.il CC: t901353@rds294.goodyear.com Subject: [twurgler@goodyear.com: Re: emacs 21.2 odd behavior in shell window] Eli, I now discover that the cursor goes off by just moving the mouse too. thanks - ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2002 11:12:07 -0500 (EST) From: Tom Wurgler To: eliz@is.elta.co.il CC: twurgler@goodyear.com, bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org In-reply-to: (message from Eli Zaretskii on Wed, 27 Mar 2002 10:32:24 -0500) Subject: Re: emacs 21.2 odd behavior in shell window Now I tried: `blink-cursor-mode' command. Initially, behavior is as described before. After running `blink-cursor-mode', cursor stays solid and I can't get it to fail. I rerun `blink-cursor-mode' and the old (bad) behavior comes back. thanks tom - ------- End of forwarded message ------- ------- End of forwarded message -------
