2013-10-15 11:32:50 Launchpad Janitor gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu): status New Confirmed
2013-10-16 15:10:39 Doug McMahon description On fresh boots the greeter & desktop may have the cursor visible or may not until mouse is moved. On a log out/in the cursor is almost always invisible until mouse is moved. This is all well & good, maybe some intentional aesthetics/design , however sometimes the cursor never becomes visible. In that case hitting some keys or context menu can cause it to show, though most times a log out is needed. (with the removal of ctrl+alt+delete > log out this means most users will need to either blindly find the session indicator or hit power button. When the g-s-d cursor plugin is disabled then the cursor is always visible, it the plugin has no use in an ubuntu session then maybe it should be default disabled There is also the possibility, particularly on ssd drives, of a login with no session indicator. This occasionally combines with no visible cursor.
