Hello,
can you give the Ubuntu Focal kernel a try?
It looks like the following commit is the culprit in Eoan:
94dc57b1 drm/mgag200: Rewrite cursor handling
As it doesn't exist in Disco, and the following commits state that they're the
fix for it:
a9c342ab drm/mgag200: Don't unpin the current cursor image's buffer.
cf578c8c drm/mgag200: Set cursor scanout address to correct BO
a0fd72d2 drm/mgag200: Pin displayed cursor BO to video memory
I assume Ubuntu Focal 20.04 works in this case, if not, we might need
more commits from the upstream tree.
Thanks

Title:
[mgag200] Ubuntu 19.10 upgrade results in invisible mouse cursor on
Matrox G200eR2
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Following in place upgrade of Ubuntu 19.04 -> 19.10 I no longer have
visible cursor with my Gnone desktop.
I have found the same problem when upgrading 2 machines from Ubuntu
19.04 -> 19.10.
Reproducing problem is easy:
1. Open Ubuntu Update Window
2. Select "Upgrade"
3. On completion of update (after reboot) cursor is no longer visible.
4. This applies to display connected to VGA port on host with USB Keyboard +
Mouse
While the connected display has no visible cursor and so is usable, I
have always used X11VNC Server to provide network GUI access. On the
remote X11VNC display I see and can use the cursor.
This bug report is being sent via Remote X11VNC window, as I cannot
use the main VGA display window (due to lack of visible cursor)
I have done search online and thought that maybe issue was with my USB
Mighty Mouse, so I also tried with Logitech M100R USB Mouse. Same
result, no visible mouse cursor.
I have done: "grep usb /var/log/syslog" and can see many USB events,
including both Apple and Logitech mouse detection events.
NOTE:
Due to compatibility issue with X11VNC, I have disable Wayland on both
machines by adding the following option to: /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
WaylandEnable=false
Regards,
John Hartley.
