Hi,
I just installed f7 on a new box. Once the machine is up and running the
mouse pointer disappears. The mouse is working because if I move it
carefully I can use it to navigate the menus at the top of the screen. I
was
able to turn on the option to highlight the mouse when the ctrl key is
pressed
which allows me to kind of operate the machine.
I have installed all of the updates but I cannot figure out how to get the
mouse pointer to show up. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this.
I am not running any of the nVidia propriatory modules and I would like to
avoid that if possible.
Sounds like:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3009
Solution:
Disable HWCursor in Xorg.
Example: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nv"
Option "HWCursor" "off"
EndSection
Hope this helps.
Yes it did!!
Thanks to all who responded. Turning off the HWCursor fixed it.
Regards,
