[Bug 1453538] Re: Invisible mouse pointer

 

Today I had a kernel bug, which appeared at second 42 after the start,
and restarting lightdm helped, contrary to my previous experience.
Unfortunately, I did not save the dmesg. Thus, the kernel bug may or may
not affect the mouse pointer issue. The kernel bug also does not appear
in dmesg on every restart. If I see it again, I'll paste the dmesg here.
