Could be http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=412789

What if you log out and then don't press any keys? Does the cursor appear, but stay in the middle of the screen? The cursor is usually blanked when you press a key, hence why I think it could be that bug...

Hi there all

I'm running Debian testing (yes, I know I shouldn't expect it to work!)
Xorg 7.1.0-15
nv video driver (I think - I'm at work and this is my home machine)
AMD64 machine
kdm display manager

This all works perfectly until someone logs out, then the mouse cursor disappears, and will not return until I reboot! This is a bit tedious, and she-who-must-be-obeyed is getting a little tetchy! The mouse appears to work OK, as the focus changes properly, I can select items and I can get a menu from the root window (ctwm), the cursor is just invisible.

I've tried restarting the x-server (Ctrl-Alt_Bkspce) no better.
Restarting kdm - still no luck.

I can't find any logged bugs at debian that mention this.

Anyone any ideas?

Giles
