Description Tomas Pelka 2011-06-29 09:31:54 UTC
Description of problem:
Don't know the exact reason but sometimes the cursor disappears but only on primary display. Secondary display works fine. Changing cursor style will not help. Seems that cursor still works (e.g icons on gnome-panel are highlighted but there is no cursor arrow).

Any concerns how to debug will be appreciated.

Probable nouveau bug instead of server bug.

Comment 2 Ben Skeggs 2011-08-17 21:41:36 UTC
Can you attach dmesg output from after the cursor has disappeared?

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-10-07 16:17:34 UTC
Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 4 Tomas Pelka 2012-04-25 13:52:16 UTC
I can't see this behavior since Xorg rebase, closing.
