[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1972080] Re: [mgag200] Mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square (missing adwaita-icon-theme-full)
The photos in comments #12 and #13 show the Ubuntu Yaru theme is not being used (missing the logo aside from this cursor bug), so it makes some sense if whatever theme that is requires more of Adwaita than regular Ubuntu does. ** Summary changed: - [mgag200] Mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square (missing adwaita-icon-theme-full) + GNOME (non-Ubuntu) login screen mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square (missing adwaita-icon-theme-full) ** Package changed: ubuntu => gdm3 (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1972080 Title: GNOME (non-Ubuntu) login screen mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square (missing adwaita-icon-theme-full) Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Do not think this is hardware dependent, but I'm using an HPE MicroServer Gen10 Plus.

I should note that regular Ubuntu 22.04 only has 'adwaita-icon-theme' installed, not 'adwaita-icon-theme-full'. To figure out which login screen it is that needs the latter, please: 1.

Adding MUTTER_DEBUG_DISABLE_HW_CURSORS=1 to /etc/environment and rebooting had no effect on the issue. White square "mouse pointer" is present on gdm login screen if /usr/share/icons/adwaita/cursors is missing (renamed). If instead I install a symbolic link .../Adwaita/cursors -> .../Yaru/cursors and restart gdm I get valid mouse pointers. gdm is clearly looking for its cursor files in the Adwaita theme directory rather than Yaru. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1972080 Title: [mgag200] Mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Do not think this is hardware dependent, but I'm using an HPE MicroServer Gen10 Plus.

Also using the wrong (or no) cursor theme won't cause "a semi-opaque white square".

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1972080] Re: [mgag200] Mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square
The reported problem is during login, not after successful login. I don't think mutter configuration has any effect before graphical login. Ubuntu's cursor theme may come from 'yaru-theme-icon', but does gdm's? Two files affect the observed condition: /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/left_ptr /usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/xterm These come from the package 'adwaita-theme-icon-full'. If the package is not installed I have no login screen mouse pointer. Install the package and the pointer appears. Leave the package installed and deleted the two above files and the pointer is gone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1972080 Title: [mgag200] Mouse cursor is a semi-opaque white square Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Do not think this is hardware dependent, but I'm using an HPE MicroServer Gen10 Plus.
