+ On opening up xubuntu 14.04 the cursor/pointer arrow freezes/locks up on
+ mewhen trying to put my password in on the logong window. Sometimes it
+ unfreezes but most of the time I'm locked onto that screen and I must do
+ a 'hard crash', aka shutdown the computer with the on/off button, I
+ don't like doing that at all. So then I turn on the computer hoping that
+ it isn't frozen, the cursor but most of the times it is, very
+ frustrating to me. So then I might go to the windows side of the
+ partitioned HDD to have the cursor act normal, stay there for a bit and
+ restart the computer and then maybe the cursor will be 'not frozen to
+ logon. If that doesn't work I might go to one of the ubuntu recovery
+ modes to see if I can get it working there and then restart the computer
+ again. I think that is all i do and i hope this issue can be resolved
+ sooner than later.
