User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060201 SeaMonkey/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060201 SeaMonkey/1.0
I can not see the text insertion caret at any place that text can be entered and/or modified when using the 8-bit display mode. The description found with bug #69599 (closed in April, 2004) describes my case closely.
I can see the caret when using the 24-bit display mode.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Ensure that your display is 8-bit.
2.Start your Xwindow system.
3.Start seamonkey-1.0
4.Move the cursor to the the navigation bar and click (or any other place that text is to be entered/modified).
Actual Results:
Nada - no caret visible (of course, my eyes are getting older (;-}))
Expected Results:
A blinking caret.
I can see the caret using mozilla-1.7.12 in the 8-bit environment.
It still occured when I eliminated my profile and build a completely new one.
I'm running on a
SunOS my.ma.ch.ine 5.8 Generic_117350-34 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100

I guess "close" was an OOPS on my part. I assumed (bad thing that (:@{)) it was closed because of "last modified date" (April, 2004) currently on the #69599 page.
FWIW - the caret is visible with firefox1.0.7 and invisible with firefox1.5+ when using the 8-bit display mode.

Reporter, can you still reproduce the bug with the current release and/or nightly builds?
The latest trunk builds are here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/contrib/latest-trunk/

Sorry. I'm using Solaris 8. I tried the July 18 Solaris11 tarball but, not surprisingly, it wouldn't execute.
