Public bug reported: Sometimes the mouse pointer becomes invisible for a while; then -- and I don't understand what triggers that -- it reappears. The mouse continues working -- mouseover and clicking works, so the only problem is that the pointer is invisible.
Happy to give you more details to help understand what's happening. Running Ubuntu 16.04 on a Lenovo Thinkpad Twist.
