- I haven't seen this one in the newsgroup, the BUG list, or the FAQ,
- so I guess I'll post.
-
- My system only shows a cursor on the top line of the screen. When
- that line is not active for input, there's no cursor. This adds
- a certain adventure to otherwise mundane text editing. 8-)
-
- I get a blinking block following a "clear" or when I first
- invoke vi. Once I leave the top line though, bye bye cursor.
- I haven't noticed any of the other video problems mentioned elsewhere.
-
- I'm running a 486/33 with 4MB RAM and a Trident 9000 VGA card with 512K.
-
- Can anyone offer a clue for me?
-
- Thanks,
