          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 60951
          Assignee: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.6-1: Mouse cursor
                    intermittently disappears, requiring reboot to
                    resolve.
        QA Contact: xorg-team at lists.x.org
          Severity: major
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: cjhandrew at gmail.com
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: Driver/nouveau
           Product: xorg

I'm using Manjaro Linux (an Arch derivative) and the xf86-video-nouveau
1.0.6-1
driver. When booting the OS, the mouse cursor appears, but for no discernible
reason, it frequently disappears. I have to reboot to regain the cursor. 

When the cursor disappears, I can still move the mouse, and elements of the GUI
'gain focus', but I'm unable to do this with any precision.

Please let me know if I can send you any further details.

Thanks,

Chris.

This bug seems very similar to Bug 15758

The bug does seem similar, apart from me using 32-bit architecture and the
earlier bug apparently being for 64-bit.

This bug doesn't really provide any information, like hardware, logs, etc.
Let's assume that it's also about a NV4E card and mark it as a dup of
the other
issue. I hightly doubt that x86 vs x86_64 would make a difference here. (I
remember seeing yet-another report of NV4E cursor weirdness.)

It's arch independant. Unfortunately. Happens a lot less often lately
though,
but I haven't used the laptop for quite a while.
