I think I solved the problem. Because I cant use gdm on 15.10 (black screen) I started to look for a solution. I found two solutions on disappearing mouse cursor:
1. I was disabled vt_handoff in /etc/grub.d/10_linux to see all messages when system boots. If I disable plymouth splash screen, then mouse cursor is visible in LightDM. If Plymouth is enabled and vt_handoff is disabled mouse cursor is invisible.
2. I enabled vt_handoff and Plymouth. Mouse is visible on LightDM.
