By the way, this statement in message #2 does not make sense: "Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful."
I originally reported this bug against Ubuntu 12.04. There is no information on this bug for a release since then, so the assertion that "information from the prior release is already available" is false. (Although, this statement is not very clear, as it only implies that it means the release prior to the development release; it does not actually say so.) In any case, I've now supplied information about the 13.10 release, i.e. 3 releases more recent, which, even though it's not the development release (which I do not have the capability easily to test on this machine) does suggest that the problem is likely to persist there too. ** Tags added: apport-collected saucy ** Description changed: My display manager (as you should be able to see) is gdm, and my desktop is GNOME 3. When I log in, the mouse pointer is working; after I have pressed Enter to enter my password, and the screen refreshes (i.e. my session is starting up) the mouse pointer does not work: moving on the touchpad does not move the pointer. If I switch to another virtual terminal and back, the pointer starts to work again.
