Still broken in Xubuntu 16.04, with a clean wipe install on an ASUS
1001PX.  To reproduce:

0. Install Xubuntu, and configure the default user to have a password.
1. Power up. Log in. Cursor is present. 
2. Close lid.
3. Open lid. Log in.
4. Cursor is gone. 
5. CTL-ALT-F1 then CTL-ALT-F7. Cursor reappears. 

Seen on two identical ASUS 1001PX machines, both totally erased and
loaded with Xubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bit from a USB stick with the MD5
verified.

There is only one display, the default "Laptop", known to the Displays
systems setting. So this isn't a problem with the cursor moving to some
nonexistent display.

This problem has a large number of hits in Google, is more than a year
old here, is marked "Critical", and still no one has taken it on. This
is a "don't use Linux" level problem for new users.
