I have this problem: no mouse cursor after login, repeatable by logout login again.
AFAIK I already had the metacity package as evidenced by CONFIG EDITOR/APPS (metacity present) WORK AROUND: BLINDLY!!:... 1 Move the mouse around, clicking left, until the cursor is clearly on Accessories then choose Terminal 2 Click in the terminal window and hit return 3 The mouse cursor appears and seems to stay until logout login again NOW that you can see the cursor, hit System/Preferences/Mouse and tick LOCATE POINTER, so that you get some temporary flashing rings round where the cursor is on the screen, just by pressing CTRL. This will help you do 1-3 next time. Sucks, but better than nothing! I look forward to a proper solution! I have had no such problems on other machines, so I reckon it might be specific to Dell Optiplex 260's Intel graphics hardware. I believe GPUs include some HW specific to showing the mouse pointer. Perhaps 10.04 is not treating this GPU properly. -- no mouse cursor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563555 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
