Hi there,

i use Debian 8 with Xfce on this machine and I have a problem with the mouse. I have 2 cursors during the game. A game cursor and a system corsor. The system cursor is faster than the game cursor so it is hard to play because i always have to wait with a click till the game cursor is at the same position.
I have attached a small picture. There you can see my problem.
Does anybody have the same problem/bug?

Edit:
Here is a second attachment. I can not play the game with this bug. What can I do?

Edit 2:
I have a workaround now. Thx at the german Debian Community.
-> https://debianforum.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=154341&p=1032267#p1032267

Now the instruction for english speaker:
You have to install the package "unclutter" For more informations read this:
-> https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=unclutter
After installation you have to open a terminal and send this command

unclutter -idle 0.001 -jitter 1000

Perhaps it works with other numbers, but this works anyway. Hope it will help other people.

I noticed something similar on a Debian Sid amd64.
I’m going to give a try to your work-around in a couple days, see if it works here too.

If I remember correctly I had two mouse cursors, but they moved at the same speed. So the game wasn’t unplayable for me, that’s why I didn’t bother looking for a fix.

Thank you anyway for sharing this work-around!

A notice for you and others. The programm "unclutter" has a bug with some other games. So change the config in /etc/default/unclutter. Search the line

START_UNCLUTTER="true"

and change it to

START_UNCLUTTER="false"

Then the programm does not start automatically. Then I use this command to start the game:

unclutter -idle 0.001 -jitter 1000 &
pid=$!
PATH/TO/GAME/MouseCraft.x86
kill $pid

This command start unclutter and the game and if you quit the game unclutter quit too.
Hope I could help.
