The latest update to debian squeeze seems to have introduced the Bug reported 
here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550942 .
(Upstream bug report can be found here 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29413 .),

i.e. after boot-up the mouse pointer is invisible (though otherwise fully 
functional).

As described in the upstream bug report going through a hibernate or a suspend 
cycle makes the mouse pointer reappear.

Apparently the fix for this problem that the upstream bug links to was not 
included in the latest squeeze update.


I got a similar problem after installing
debian-6.0.1a-i386-businesscard.iso

I can't reproduce the suspend-step because the display stays dark when 
resuming.

It was included before squeeze.  Apparently reintroduced with the kernel
update.

Hi,

and thanks for your report.

LN2 mbfmau...@gmail.com (20/03/2011):
 The latest update to debian squeeze seems to have introduced the Bug
 reported here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550942 .

 Apparently the fix for this problem that the upstream bug links to
 was not included in the latest squeeze update.

AFAICT from the upstream bug, the guilty commit is on the kernel side:
| drm/i915: Add pipe A force quirk for some laptops (Closes: #608148)

and that commit got included in the kernel update for the 6.0.1 point
release:
  http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/linux-2.6/news/20110307T195907Z.html

So downgrading your kernel to the previous revision (2.6.32-30) should
make your cursor become available again.

Kernel maintainers, you apparently want this commit to fix that:
| commit 897493504addc5609f04a2c4f73c37ab972c29b2
| Author: Chris Wilson ch...@chris-wilson.co.uk
| Date:   Sun Sep 12 18:25:19 2010 +0100
| 
| drm/i915: Ensure that the crtcinfo is populated during mode_fixup()
| 
| This should fix the mysterious mode setting failures reported during
| boot up and after resume, generally for i8xx class machines.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, it is probably a kernel problem.

And yes downgrading does fix it.
