Public bug reported: === Problem === After upgrading to Maverick's -14 kernel, the cursor is invisible. Otherwise it still functions perfectly (hover effects even work on buttons and links), I just can't see it. I have to enable "Show position of pointer when the Control Key is pressed" in System->Preferences->Mouse to use it.
=== Debugging === Tested with the mainline kernels: 2.6.35 failed. 2.6.35-rc6 passed. I'd love to git-bisect the commits for the 2.6.35 kernel, but there's no documentation on how to do it and I've wasted all of the last two days trying to figure out how to do it.
