Rainfly_X, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

It still EXISTS - for example, you can track down the location via mouseover tooltips and such. But you can't see it. Things that don't fix it: * Switch to another workspace * Click rapidly in frustration/wiggle mouse all over the place * Install and remove 'unclutter' * Play around with the System Settings > Displays thing (extremely difficult without a visible mouse) Things that fix it: * Restart computer * Switch to a getty with CTRL-ALT-F* My computer is a System76 Wild Dog Performance desktop, running Ubuntu 13.10, with xserver-xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu6 (according to apt-cache policy). I have the Nvidia proprietary drivers installed, and use Unity. Expected behavior: Mouse cursor is visible, no matter how long I'm logged in. Happened instead: Mouse disappeared after awhile (current uptime 18h 20m, but that's on the short side).
