Hi,

Thank you so much Aaron!! I reported this bug in Ubuntu Mate and your fix
worked for me.  In a nutshell I ran these 2 commands:

sudo mkdir /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
echo -e 'Section "Device"\n Identifier "Card0"\n Driver "Intel"\n
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"\nEndSection' | sudo tee
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

Title:
  Mouse cursor lost when unlocking with Intel graphics

Status in xf86-video-intel:
  Fix Released
Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Cursor is visible at unlock screen either after returning from suspend
  or just locking.

  After unlocking screen cursor is invisible.

  Changing to vt1 then back to vt7 (ctrl+alt+f1 then ctrl+alt+f7) cursor
  returns

  ====================

  no matter if you suspend or sleep, to swap or disk when you return
  from it, the mouse cursor is missing.    you can still move the mouse
  and you can see (because it highlights the window) as you move it
  around.   But the cursor is not displayed on the screen.

  i am using a lenovo W540 laptop.   I downloaded the latest beta on
  april 8 2016.

  this is xubuntu using the xfce window manager.

  the cursor does return if i log off and log back in, but that actually 
defeats the purpose of going to sleep.
