[Buildroot] [PATCH] Option to disable mouse cursor in QT

[jean at iddad.fr]

 Hi,

My company is developing a touch screen product and we are using QT. Because of the touch screen, I don't want to display any mouse pointer/cursor so I patched buildroot to disable it at configuration time.
As touchscreens become more and more common some other people may need this patch as well, so here it is:

diff -crB buildroot-2010.08/package/qt/Config.in buildroot-2010.08-patched/package/qt/Config.in

Sounds like a good thing to have.

Could you format your patch as an unified diff, and add the proper
description + signed-off-by-line ? This would allow us to keep proper
attribution on the patch. If you're not interested by being directly
attributed the work of this patch, I can also merge it manually.

Regards,

Thomas

Adds a configuration option to disable Mouse Cursor in QT.
This is especially useful with touchscreens where we don't need a mouse cursor.
