It happens intermittent and was seen on different kernel-versions. I can't remember if the version of any xorg-package changed.
It's like the pointer on the screen is transparent or has a size of zero - it's not visible. But it's there (for the software) as i can blind use the pad to try to hit an item (link in browser, window to activate, ...), which will work as expected. But it's hard to do something useful in the xsession.
The touchpad gets recognized by the kernel and Xorg-server, according to the logs. A reboot (no powerdown) will fix this issue, till the next time.
I think this only happens when I coldstart the PC, but I'm not sure.
