It is possible that package libgtk-3-0 (3.12.2-0ubuntu15) is the culprit...
I suggest this because there is a bug where fonts become blury in text views, whenever scrollbars are displayed. See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=715008 or see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1309785. The Bugzilla bug #715008 was fixed in version 3.14 of libgtk-3-0, but Utopic (14.10) is only using version 3.12.2 of libgtk-3-0. Perhpas this current bug is also related to the way GTK+3 (libgtk-3-0) handles text views in general? ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #715008 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=715008 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1387219 Title: Mouse pointer disappears and cursor stops blinking To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1387219/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
