A couple of days ago I noticed that when I came to log in each morning there was no blinking underscore cursor on tty1. No matter, I thought, I can easily type my username and password followed by 'startx'. This morning I decided to search Google to see if I could learn why the cursor disappeared.
Before doing the search, I checked all the other consoles (tty2-7). They all have working cursors. Based on no cursor on only one console, I've no idea how to construct a search string for Google. I cannot imagine that I wore out the cursor on tty1 because that's the default here when X isn't running. It's a minor issue, but one I'd like to understand and repair if that doesn't require a large time investment. Suggestions on where to start looking are appreciated. Rich -- Richard B.
