I am thinking that by using SWCursor option in X Server I can eliminate video driver compatibility issues. There are few posts on forum but nether one pointed to config file available in Ubuntu 12. Could you advice if assumption that SWCursor option bypass rendering mouse pointer (cursor) by specific video driver is a correct assumption and where it should be set in Ubuntu 12 (Gnome 3)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998308 Title: invisible mouse cursor in 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/998308/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected precise ubuntu ** Description changed: Issue --- 12.04 64 bit Installation finished successfully with no errors. But nether login screen nor default desktop have mouse cursor. Mouse works but cursor pointer is completely invisible. However cursor shows up for little moment while in transition from login screen to desktop. Facts --- - default config for gnome - Tried both upgrade from 10.04.04 to 12.04 and fresh install of 12.04 from alternate.iso. Exactly same look with no cursor. - video drv ok - I use AST driver that manufacture validated with 12.04. Indeed there is no errors in X server log and it uses driver provided by AST. - no hw issues - hw in use cpu E5520 chip-set X58. Was working fine with ubuntu 10.04 for years with no issues at all. - no errors in X server log I see that combination of lightdm and unity-greeter is used but can not find error in log. What program is responsible to draw mouse cursor on default desktop in 12.04, how to narrow the issue? - Posted on support forum - no reply - - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11927697 + Posted on support forum - no reply - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11927697 + --- + .tmp.unity.support.test.1: + + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 + Architecture: amd64 + CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' + CompositorRunning: None + DistUpgraded: Fresh install + DistroCodename: precise + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + DistroVariant: ubuntu + ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, whatever it takes to get this fixed in Ubuntu + GraphicsCard: + ASPEED Technology, Inc.
