** Description changed: PC running 11.10. Problem started as soon as upgrade was complete. + + The mouse pointer is invisible everywhere on screen. Sometimes, when the + region it's in requires a different pointer than the default arrow + (pointing finger, I-beam, etc), it will be visible, and on-screen + objects always react to the presence of the mouse pointer, even when it + can't be seen. + + The mouse pointer has disappeared ever since I upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10. + It's very frustrating that every attempt at using the mouse to navigate + within this website or within the windowed environment is a matter of + educated guesswork, since I can't see where I'm pointing the mouse. + + To my mind, describing the mouse pointer as invisible captures the + elements of the problem in one word. It's not that it doesn't exist, + for, like the invisible man, it still interacts with its surroundings, + but, also like the invisible man, it can no longer be seen. The only + time it becomes visible is when the mouse pointer changes from the arrow + to another form.
