cursor is block

<< < (2/2)

hi,

When I type a succession of keys and click of mouse, my cursor is blocked, it can still move, but the cursor takes a particular form, not the traditional pointer, and I can nothing any more select, to click. My only solution is to leave codeblocks with the Alt+F4 order. I can only use the keyboard. the mouse is then unusable for all the applications.
I use gnu/linux; Ubnuntu 7.04 more exactly. I have this problem since one year roughly! I often updated codeblocks that I downloaded in the forum. Currently I use the version svn 3989.
The particular cursor look lilke that:

I hope that this time you will be able to understand my problem!  :)
I hope too that this time my English is more comprehensible than the last time.  :D

Ah, now I know what you're talking about. That's a well known problem on Linux and has been discussed many times in the forums. Unfortunately it's a bug in wxWidgets, but some people say it has been fixed in wx 2.8.x, but I haven't tried though.

Sorry for the bad and uncertain news.

Biplab:
Please specify your wx-runtime version. As Ceniza told this is a wxGTK bug which has been fixed recently. I don't remember the exact version. But you need to upgrade your wx runtime package.

It is not a so bad news! Now I know that this bug is known. It is already a good thing. Then, my version of WxWidget is wx2.6.3
I will install a new version, it will be seen well if this bug is always there or not.
