This happens to me too on a 2015 Lenovo X1 Carbon, up-to-date vivid. When it happens (usually after resuming from a suspend, but sometimes during normal usage) the trackpoint, trackpad and touchscreen all still work and UI elements highlight when the cursor is over them, but the cursor itself is invisible. Sometimes suspending and resuming fixes the issue but usually I have to reboot or restart lightdm. I don't know if the cursor would start working again after a few hours, I can't afford to lose that amount of work time to find out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1467595 Title: cursor sometimes disappears on XPS 13 9343 and external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1467595/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've also seen on my Fujitsu U904 (3200x1800) connected over DP to the external 4k screen. I've worked around it by using Ctrl to highlight the cursor position until the cursor returns (sometimes it takes more than a couple of hours, and the only sure way to get it back is to log out and log back in — switching to terminal console or suspending and resuming does not help).

FYI, for unrelated reasons, I started using the 4.0 from wily and the 4.1 kernel from https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel- team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/. I was able to run an X/Unity session under the 4.1.0-1.1~dogfoodv1 kernel for two days without rebooting without the cursor disappearing (I am now using 4.1.0.1.1~rc2 since it has a fix for bug #1473560). If someone is looking to bisect this, it might be worth starting with the 4.0 kernel that is in wily now. I was using that (with microphone patches for bug #1473560) for a while and never saw the cursor go away (but I'm not sure the longest I ran a session though). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1467595 Title: cursor sometimes disappears on XPS 13 9343 and external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1467595/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Jamie Strandboge, as per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19 /product-support/product/xps-13-9343-laptop/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (A04). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New.
