(Ctr+Alt+F1) in tty mode everething is fine including cursor. The problem with invisible mouse pointer (cursor) is only in graphical mode, on login screen and ubuntu desktop. The only error I can find is in lightdm/x-0-greeter.log . See attach. There fore I suspect that default distr has missing configuration file for lightdm+unity to work properly on my hardware.

But nether login screen nor default desktop have mouse cursor. Mouse works but cursor pointer is completely invisible. However cursor shows up for little moment while in transition from login screen to desktop. Facts --- - default config for gnome - Tried both upgrade from 10.04.04 to 12.04 and fresh install of 12.04 from alternate.iso. Exactly same look with no cursor. - video drv ok - I use AST driver that manufacture validated with 12.04. Indeed there is no errors in X server log and it uses driver provided by AST. - no hw issues - hw in use cpu E5520 chip-set X58. Was working fine with ubuntu 10.04 for years with no issues at all. - no errors in X server log I see that combination of lightdm and unity-greeter is used but can not find error in log. What program is responsible to draw mouse cursor on default desktop in 12.04, how to narrow the issue?
