I installed Debian 12 on a laptop. I found that when the mouse was moved up to the top menu bar it disappeared. If I managed to click on the menu the mouse was invisible over the menu too. Also I noticed the letter A from activities was missing. You will forgive me I hope for installing OpenSUSE

Screenshot with Gnome
