Hello, sorry for late reply. I forgot about this and never got notification of your replies.
Anyway, it appears this has been reported in bug #1565846 and has nothing to do with BIOS, but is a known GNOME issue as mentioned in that bug. I'll be soon upgrading to 16.04 and can then confirm if that fixed the issue, as bug #1565846 suggests. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1523086 Title: Ubuntu 15.10: GNOME Terminal window loses mouse cursor Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: gnome-terminal-3.16.2-1ubuntu4 Problem: Sometimes, but always when out of focus, a GNOME terminal window will lose mouse icon when it is hovered over the window. Clicking the window (and thus bringing it back in focus) restores the mouse icon. Once all that starts to happen, any URLs in the terminal stop showing pointer cursor when hovered over, but they do respond to clicks and right-clicks. --- ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: vlad 1856 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a666043d-11d1-472f-8ccd-3ef13cae559a InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-11-19 (15 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) MachineType: To Be Filled By O.E.M.
