[Bug 1401842] [NEW] Two cursors on each tty console

 

Public bug reported:

Package: xorg
Version:  1:7.7+1ubuntu8

How to reproduce:
1) Make sure you have X and gpm running. Observe that under X you are having just one cursor displayed.
2) Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch to tty1 console.
3) Observe that you have two cursors on the black screen: the square one is probably from gpm and responds to mouse movements, while the arrow one is as in X, is centered, and it does not move with the mouse. The screen foto is attached.

Expected: exactly one cursor under X, exactly one cursor on each
console, both X and console cursors are operational.

Any help is appreciated.
