I seem to have run into this with lightdm 1.0.1-0ubuntu6 (oneiric
64-bit). Doing some poking around I note that restarting lightdm from a
terminal (i.e /etc/init.d/lightdm restart or similar) makes the cursor
reappear properly again. Further experimentation seems to point to some
interaction with the grub splash screen - removing   splash from
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub results in the cursor
showing up in lightdm every time.

Bug description:
  It seems that, since 0.9.2, cursor is often not shown in GTK+ greeter.
  This is a regression from 0.9.0, afaict, but it might be a GTK+ 3.0
  issue too.
