I'm a cat lover who likes to run xneko. The kitty is really cute and
I enjoy seeing it chase the mouse around the screen. However, when I
tried to run it on M11-113-4 on a parallax display, I don't get a
kitty when I run xneko.... I only get a mess of some lines that tries
to chase the mouse. I just wanted to let you know about this
unfortunate circumstance so that xneko can be fixed in the future....
Do you have any idea why kitty goes to pieces on a parallax??
This is almost definitely a bug with the X server on the parallax
displays -- I have seen several bug reports about various programs
that fail on the parallax in similar ways.
As such, there isn't much we can do about this. Sorry.
