I do not think it's a bug with KDE software. I can reproduce on Arch Linux running Wayland session of Gnome. (In reply to Patrick Silva from comment #1) > I do not think it's a bug with KDE software.

It'd be interesting to know which part of the software stack is responsible to render the cursor (in an XWayland app)? >It'd be interesting to know which part of the software stack is responsible to render the cursor (in an XWayland app)?
The client tells X what cursor it wants and if it should hide
XWayland then provides a cursor to the wayland server
the compositor renders the cusor provided by the client (which in this case is xwayland)
First step is to confirm if it truly is a kwin problem
Thanks David and Patrick. Also happens under kWin X11 5.25.3 and under Sway 1.7.4; will report it upstream. |
