Created attachment 929325 [details] dmesg-output Description of problem: On booting into the latest rawhide kernel, my mouse pointer disappears and is not recoverable. I've attempted workarounds as posted on the internet (e.g., switching into a virtual terminal, and then switching back to the gui), but no attempts actually resolve the problem. After running into this problem on Rawhide, I switched back to Fedora 20, but still try out the Rawhide Kernel from Fedora 20 to see if this problem is fixed. I do briefly see the mouse pointer in the transition between GDM and the desktop, but it is otherwise not present at all - not even as a ghost pointer which is there and can be used but just can't be seen. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Linux localhost.localdomain 3.17.0-0.rc1.git1.1.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 14:00:55 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux This is the rawhide kernel, 3.17.0-0.rc1.git1.1.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot into the laptop 2. Notice that mouse pointer is not present Actual results: Same Expected results: Mouse pointer should be visible and functional. Additional info: See attached system info. This is on a Haswell Dell XPS 13 (2014).

Created attachment 929331 [details] xorg-0-log Note that this log shows the Fedora 20 kernel. I wasn't able to see anything in the logs with regards to the Rawhide (3.17) kernel.
I had attempted to run Rawhide because screen brightness and suspend-resume do not work on Fedora 20. Those issues appear to be resolved in the Rawhide kernel. However, this past week the "no mouse button" issue cropped up. I think it occurred with updates that I installed on Sunday or Monday evening, August 17th or 18th, 2014. Thanks for your help!
I have consistently reproduced this issue on both the kernel that was originally mentioned, on up through more recent kernels. As of now, this problem still exists on kernel-3.17.0-0.rc2.git2.1.fc22.
<j1mc> yes - my screen does have touch capability, and i'm using gnome-shell

This issue appears to be fixed with an update to kernel 3.17.0-0.rc3.git3.1.fc22.x86_64. I'm not sure what fixed it, so please let me know if you'd like more info (e.g., if you'd like me to re-run any of the tests that I ran previously). Thanks.
