Title: Ball shaped cursor while starting apps makes pointing hard Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: compiz I booted the live environment from an USB stick, using the ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso When I start a program from the menu or the panel (like Firefox) the mouse pointer changes shape to the spinning ball. While in that shape it is hard to click smaller items on the screen as there is no point of the cursor. For example resizing existing windows is next to impossible, as a narrow area most be hit, but the pointer is a big ball and the user does not see where the hotspot is , also the ball covers are that the user is trying to aim at.
