i booted lubuntu 18.10 (9-Oct-2018 iso); it has `xserver-xorg-video-
nouveau` & started suspending (suspend, few secs, wake, look for
pointer, repeat) but couldn't recreate. Lubuntu uses xscreensaver so I
was using mouse to wake up screensaver - so `killall xscreensaver`then
repeated testing. I get an error on wake ("Error occurred starting
screensaver. Action 'activate' failed. Ensure you have xscreensaver
installed and running") which I hit <enter> to bypass.
Now I note a 0-2 second delay of mouse-movement before I can see the
mouse-pointer drawn on screen, but even the more common 1-2 seconds is
minimal compared to xubuntu. Once mouse-pointer appears, it remains
visible. This delay was consistent in being slow to appear; usually 1-2
secs but appeared inconsistent in time to appear (user/me inconsistent
probably too), though I tried to delay touching mouse to ensure system
was ~idle.
// just observation whilst `find` executed looking for 18.04 iso's

Title:
xubuntu 18.10 daily x86 - suspend, on wake i have no mouse-pointer
(nvidia/nouveau)
Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
-- updated info
I re-booted daily x86 daily on same machine, was able to re-create, but it
came good on its own (20-30 seconds after screen appeared)
It only occurs sometimes; more testing & it can occur with `sudo
systemctl suspend` but if you wait cursor will re-appear usually so my
conclusion it was [fixed] via whisker-menu may be invalid; maybe I'm
impatient, or nvidia/nouveau on this card requires time for system to
display mouse???
I do think something is wrong, but it's extremely minor, and
inconsistent! (would be a pain I suspect to find)

xubuntu 18.10 daily ISO x86
QA test - 2018-10-10 00:26 (current timestamp on QA tracker) of daily
ISO
on suspend everything is normal, on wake I've lost my mouse-pointer.
I can see icons (drives, panel widgets) react & thus can detect where
cursor is if over something, but no mouse-pointer is visible at all.
To get mouse back, I select menu (top left), then move mouse over menu
and pointer re-appears.
Selecting anything else does not bring mouse back, also selecting menu
but moving mouse up (not on menu but off screen) allows me to de-
select menu without pointer being re-drawn. It returns only if I move
mouse over the [main] menu when selected.
I've suspended 4 times this 'live-test', same loss-of-pointer each
time, each time restored via selection of menu top left (third time I
didn't have it return as I coughed causing mouse to never thus cross
menu & select something right causing menu to close without return of
mouse-pointer; got same reaction on 4th sleep/wake)..

I looked for duplicates - lots for intel graphics, not nvidia
