This is usually a problem with gnome-settings-daemon being delayed because of something. Please supply system journal log when this happens and tell us the timestamp of when the cursor appears.

Comment 2 cornel panceac 2015-12-02 18:50:00 UTC

I can not reproduce this also :(
(tried only tonight. i'll try again at some other time.)

Comment 3 Kamil Páral 2015-12-03 09:03:08 UTC

OK, please reopen this and attach logs if this happens again.

I've switched back to Wayland after some time, and a few seconds after login the mouse cursor was stuck for a while (maybe 10 seconds). I'll check reproducibility. Maybe it's the same root cause.

Meanwhile, i wonder why i keep receiveing periodically emails about this closed ticket. ("Your outstanding requests ...")

Different things, the pointer is handled by the compositor in Wayland, ie mutter/gnome-shell, and if it gets busy doing something else (which is quite common at startup) the pointer may appear to remain stuck or lagging.

Because you had a "needinfo" pending, that you've now cleared :)

Well, what i was thinking is that maybe the cursor was not invisible because it was not displayed, but because it was stuck in the "right" corner of the screen ...
