Title:
Possible cause for 19.10 invisible cursor with Matrox graphics
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
BUG: Invisible Cursor with Ubuntu 19.10 Desktop Upgrade and Install CD
Boot
This bug was reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1851340
WHAT OCCURRED:
Upgrade from Ubuntu 19.04 to 19.10 results in having invisible cursor on main
Gnome Desktop
Subsequent testing revealed that issues is able to be demonstrated by
just booting from Live iso image
B) Attempt Fresh 19.10 Desktop Install
B.1) Boot - Ubuntu 19.10 Desktop CD-ROM image via USB - Mouse / Cursor
not visible
So I have unable to proceed with clean 19.10 install as there was no
mouse cursor visible.
WHAT WAS EXPECTD:
Gnome Desktop with working cursor
POSSIBLE ROOT CAUSE:
Investigation has identified pull request for 5.3 Kernel that includes
fix for cursor issue with MatroX Graphics:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=574cc4539762561d96b456dbc0544d8898bd4c6e
See:
mgag200:
- cursor support fix
So issue possibly resolved with kernel update, as have two cases reported
with Matrox G200 embedd graphics controllers.
Raising here so that can be verified and tested by Ubuntu Kernel team.
