Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose-modules
After installing the virtualbox guest additions for Hardy, and configure
xorg.conf to use those drivers; the mouse cursor disappears. The mouse
still works, but the cursor itself is rendered invisible.
Expected behaviour:
xorg restarts with a larger resolution and a working cursor.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1.) Install Hardy as a guest on virtualbox.
2.) Install virtualbox-ose-guest-source and virtualbox-ose-guest-utils.
3.) module-assistant prepare virtualbox-ose-guest
4.) module-assistant auto-install virtualbox-ose-guest
5.) Run /etc/init.d/virtualbox-ose-guest-utils start.
6.) Run /usr/share/virtualbox/x11config.pl. (This changes the mouse driver to
"vboxmouse" and the video driver to "vboxvideo" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
7.) Restart xorg
Workaround:
1.) sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
2.) Restart xorg (This setup does NOT use the vbox drivers.)
This bug affects Kubuntu 8.04 Hardy alpha, using version 1.5.4-dfsg-
4ubuntu3 of virtualbox-ose-guest-source and virtualbox-ose-guest-utils.
** Affects: virtualbox-ose-modules (Ubuntu)
