[Bug 1413021] [NEW] Pointer disappears when 'Activities' is clicked

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

After logging in, if I click on either the "Activities" or the "date" or the battery/wireless indicator, the pointer visually goes invisible.  I can still select things (if the 'invisible pointer' points to them), but the pointer itself is not shown.
When I exit these menus(for example the "Activities" screen)  the pointer returns.
