Just a quick note, launchpad automatically linked the Bugzilla bug I referenced above to a bug ~within~ Launchpad with the same number, so please don't use that automatic link.
Use these links instead: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=715008 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1309785. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1387219 Title: Mouse pointer disappears and cursor stops blinking Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Open gedit.
