Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.34.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The mouse pointer gets invisible on desktop background and the shell elements after some desktop actions. Application windows have a full functional mouse pointer. Unfortunately I cannot explain which situation gets the pointer invisible, probably suspending the laptop and start it again. * Move the mouse pointer around an application window (pointer can be seen) * Move the pointer to the background or to the top bar Expected: Mouse pointer is still visible Actual behaviour: Mouse pointer gets invisible It is quite difficult to explain when this effect occured. I assume it began when changing to a 5.x kernel still with gnome-shell 3.2. No changes with 3.4. There are some ways to force a visible mouse pointer again, like opening the "change background" dialog. But after some actions (switching between windows of different programs) the cursor is invisible again. I am using "focus on moving mouse over" set in tweak tool's window tab. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages gnome-shell depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.34.0-1 ii evolution-data-server 3.34.1-1+b1 ii gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 0.6.55-1 ii gir1.2-atspi-2.0 2.34.0-3 ii gir1.2-freedesktop 1.62.0-2 ii gir1.2-gcr-3 3.33.4-2 ii gir1.2-gdesktopenums-3.0 3.34.0-2 ii gir1.2-gdm-1.0 3.34.1-1 ii gir1.2-geoclue-2.0 2.5.5-1 ii gir1.2-glib-2.0 1.62.0-2 ii gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0 3.34.0-1 ii gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 3.34.1-1 ii gir1.2-gtk-3.0 3.24.12-1 ii gir1.2-gweather-3.0 3.34.0-1 ii gir1.2-ibus-1.0 1.5.21-1 ii gir1.2-mutter-5 3.34.1-3 ii gir1.2-nm-1.0 1.20.4-2 ii gir1.2-nma-1.0 1.8.24-1 ii gir1.2-pango-1.0 1.42.4-7 ii gir1.2-polkit-1.0 0.105-26 ii gir1.2-rsvg-2.0 2.44.14-1 ii gir1.2-soup-2.4 2.68.2-1 ii gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 0.99.11-1 ii gjs 1.58.1-1 ii gnome-backgrounds 3.34.0-1 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.34.1-1+b1 ii gnome-shell-common 3.34.1-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.34.0-2 ii libatk-bridge2.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.34.1-1 ii libc6 2.29-2 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-4 ii libcroco3 0.6.13-1 ii libecal-2.0-1 3.34.1-1+b1 ii libedataserver-1.2-24 3.34.1-1+b1 ii libgcr-base-3-1 3.33.4-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-1 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.62.0-2 ii libgjs0g 1.58.1-1 ii libgles2 1.1.0-1+b1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.1-1 ii libglib2.0-bin 2.62.1-1 ii libgnome-autoar-0-0 0.2.3-2 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.16.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.12-1 ii libical3 3.0.5-2 ii libjson-glib-1.0-0 1.4.4-2 ii libmutter-5-0 3.34.1-3 ii libnm0 1.20.4-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpolkit-agent-1-0 0.105-26 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-26 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 13.0-2 ii libpulse0 13.0-2 ii libsecret-1-0 0.19.1-1 ii libsystemd0 242-7 ii libwayland-server0 1.17.0-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-1 ii mutter 3.34.1-3 ii python3 3.7.5-1 Versions of packages gnome-shell recommends: pn bolt <none> ii chrome-gnome-shell 10.1-5 ii gdm3 3.34.1-1 ii gkbd-capplet 3.26.1-1 ii gnome-control-center 1:3.34.1-1 ii gnome-user-docs 3.34.0-2 ii ibus 1.5.21-1 ii iio-sensor-proxy 2.4-2+b1 ii switcheroo-control 1.3.1-2 ii unzip 6.0-25 Versions of packages gnome-shell suggests: ii gir1.2-telepathyglib-0.12 0.24.1-2+b1 ii gir1.2-telepathylogger-0.2 0.8.2-3+b1 Versions of packages gnome-session depends on: ii gnome-session-bin 3.34.1-1 ii gnome-session-common 3.34.1-1 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.34.1-1+b1 Versions of packages gnome-session suggests: ii desktop-base 10.0.3 ii gnome-keyring 3.34.0-1 Versions of packages gnome-settings-daemon depends on: ii gnome-settings-daemon-common 3.34.1-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.34.0-2 ii libasound2 1.1.8-2 ii libc6 2.29-2 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-4 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-7 ii libcanberra0 0.30-7 ii libcolord2 1.4.3-4 ii libcups2 2.3.0-5 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2+b1 ii libgcr-base-3-1 3.33.4-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-1 ii libgeoclue-2-0 2.5.5-1 ii libgeocode-glib0 3.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.1-1 ii libgnome-desktop-3-18 3.34.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.12-1 ii libgudev-1.0-0 233-1 ii libgweather-3-16 3.34.0-1 ii liblcms2-2 2.9-3+b1 ii libmm-glib0 1.10.4-0.1 ii libnm0 1.20.4-2 ii libnotify4 0.7.8-1 ii libnspr4 2:4.21-2 ii libnss3 2:3.45-1 ii libpam-systemd 242-7 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.42.4-7 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-26 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 13.0-2 ii libpulse0 13.0-2 ii libupower-glib3 0.99.11-1 ii libwacom2 1.1-1 ii libwayland-client0 1.17.0-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 Versions of packages gnome-settings-daemon recommends: ii iio-sensor-proxy 2.4-2+b1 ii pulseaudio 13.0-2 Versions of packages libgjs0g depends on: ii gir1.2-glib-2.0 1.62.0-2 ii libc6 2.29-2 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.16.0-4 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-4 ii libffi6 3.2.1-9 ii libgcc1 1:9.2.1-8 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.62.0-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.62.1-1 ii libmozjs-60-0 60.8.0-2 ii libreadline8 8.0-3 ii libstdc++6 9.2.1-8 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.8-1 Versions of packages gnome-shell is related to: ii libegl-mesa0 [libegl-vendor] 19.2.1-1 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 19.2.1-1 ii libglx-mesa0 [libglx-vendor] 19.2.1-1 -- no debconf information
