Title:
  mouse pointer invisible/disappears

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Only way to get it back is reboot.

  If I switch to another VT and run "xinit -- :1"  I have a mouse on
  that X server but still no on the original one.

  Also since xinit only starts a single xterm and when I type in that
  xterm the mouse pointer gets invisible until I move the mouse my guess
  is that the "mouse is always invisible"  is a problem with the X
  server and not with say unity.

  I have a mac book pro using only the intel driver.

  Is there any command I can use to force the pointer to be visible
  again ?? this has happened several times now and is starting to be a
  real problem.
