I have a dell inspiron 8200 laptop . Install went fine. After booting and using my laptop for a while my mouse pointer just disappears. Any ideas? Any way to restart my mouse pointer? I tried doing CTL-ALT+F1 and ALT_F7 thinking that would reinitialize the mouse but no. Only thing that works is reboot. THanks, Jerry

Ok I tried all differnet combinations. gpm off/on etc... restarting gpm when the mouse is lost... nothing helped. This seems to happend when I am running vncviewer. Any other ideas?
