Title: GNOME (non-Ubuntu) login screen mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square (missing adwaita-icon-theme-full) Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Do not think this is hardware dependent, but I'm using an HPE MicroServer Gen10 Plus. I installed the server edition of 22.04. Post-Installation, I added some desktop environments. After logging in, these are working fine. However on the gdm login entry and password entry screens I had no mouse pointer icon. A semi-opaque white square tracked the mouse movements. My reading suggested that gdm defaults to using the cursor icon theme provided by the adwaita-icon-theme package. I discovered this theme comes in two sizes, a basic, smaller package installed automatically and a larger "full" package. $ apt list 'adwaita-icon-theme*' Listing... Done adwaita-icon-theme/jammy,now 41.0-1ubuntu1 all [installed,automatic] adwaita-icon-theme-full/jammy,now 41.0-1ubuntu1 all [installed] $ The gdm mouse pointer appears and disappears with installation and removal of the package "adwaita-icon-theme-full". Either gdm's dependencies should include the "full" package OR the appropriate mouse pointer icons should be moved from the full to the basic "adwaita-icon-theme" package.
