Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.26+2
Severity: normal
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
I've reported this bug against the package "gnome" since I have no idea
which of the many packages of gnome is responsible for the problem. So
please reassign it to the correct package.
When I log in to gnome with my normal user account, the mouse pointer
isn't visible directly after logging in. In gdm and during the gnome
startup (roughly before the panels are shown) the mouse pointer is
visible. Then it disappears automatically. The problem seems to be
somehow related to my configuration. It works perfectly when I log in as
another user. I don't remember having changed any related configuration
entries before. I'd prefer not to loose my whole gnome configuration. So
maybe you can point me to where in the configuration the error might be.
I've already tried changing the mouse pointer in Appearance in the gnome
control center. This didn't solve my problem.
After a few minutes (and moving the mouse) the mouse pointer appears
again. As a workaround, the mouse pointer usually appears quiet quickly
when starting the command "Xnest :1" and moving the mouse a lot.

thanks for the follow-up, I'm closing the bug accordingly. Also,
thanks for the initial bugreport, sorry it wasn't processed earlier,
we're not that many behind those X packages.
