After some investigation, this is due to lightdm hard coding an option passed to unity-system-compositor to enable the hardware cursor. Since Unity 8 now provides its own cursor, this option is no longer needed. I opened a new bug against lightm to specifically disable the "--enable- hardware-cursor=true" option. I think it's best to dup this bug to that bug (bug #1517615). ** Also affects: lightdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Assignee: Daniel d'Andrada (dandrader) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: canonical-pocket-desktop Status: New => Invalid ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1517615 Need to disable "--enable-hardware-cursor=true" option in unity-system-compositor -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515921 Title: 2 mouse pointers when running gedit with gtk mir on Unity8 Status in canonical-pocket-desktop: Invalid Status in Libertine: Invalid Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: ubuntu 16.04 i get 2 mouse pointers when running gedit with gtk mir on Unity8. they also have diff sizes and positions. even after closing gedit i'm left with 2 mouse pointers. i don't need 2, one is enough. it gets really confusing using 2 mouse pointers at the same time, uh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1515921/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
