Hello!
For a phone we obviously don't need a mouse pointer, but at the moment
I can only interact with the UI by clicking blindly, which is not
ideal for testing. So, do you have an idea on what might be wrong
here?
I have ideas...
First of all: the mouse cursor is only shown if a mouse is connected. I
assume that you connected one ;-)
The more likely explanation is that etnaviv doesn't have a mouse cursor
layer, which would make sense as it's a mobile chip set. KWin uses the
hardware cursor layer in the drm platform, so if it does not exist it
won't work. Whether that's the case is something which can only be
tested with the hardware (e.g. adding a break point and seeing where
KWin goes). If that's the case we can easily fix it by using the sofware
rendered cursor. IIRC that is only available in 5.11, though.
Another possibility is that there is no mouse cursor theme configured.
I'm not sure how much magic happens in startkde which is not executed on
Plasma mobile. That should be easy to test, just export XCURSOR_THEME to
something sensible (e.g. breeze_cursors).
Cheers
