Bug#636130: lightdm: mouse cursor often not visible
Andreas Rottmann
Version: 0.9.2-2
Severity: normal
When starting lightdm, whether automatically at startup (via the init
script), or manually, the mouse cursor often fails to show. Keyboard
input is working fine, however, and it seems the pointer is present,
but just invisible, as moving the mouse e.g. highlights the session
chooser dropdown widget.
After logging in, in the session started by lightdm the mouse cursor
is shown. I also once had the case where the mouse cursor was shown,
but clicking had no effect.

Yes, I had cursor issues too, forwarded upstream.
