[RADEONFB] Cursor gone

[RADEONFB] Cursor gone

[Kronos]

Hi,
sometimes  when I  switch to  console from  X I  loose the  cursors. The
problem seems to be random (it doesn't appear if I don't start X though)
and I'm unable  to find a pattern to reproduce  it. I'm using 2.5.73 now
but I first  saw this bug in 2.5.70 (hadn't  tried previous kernel, I'll
check asap).

How can I pinpoint the bug?

This is the patch that you announced on July  3rd, isn't it?
I see  the problem with  2.5.74 +  the patch posted  on July 3rd  but it
doesn't happen as often as with plain 2.5.74. Usualy switching back to X
and then to the console fixes the problem.
